The Lewandowski Group studies collisions and reactions of simple cold molecules and ions. Our ultimate goal is to understand the quantum mechanical processes involved in making and breaking a chemical bond. We aim to control the reacting molecules external and internal degrees of freedom in the quantum regime.

Our research uses supersonic expansion coupled with Stark deceleration to cool and slow polar molecules. We start by expanding a mixture of Krypton and the molecule of interest through a small aperture into our vacuum system. The resulting pulse of ground-state molecules has a narrow velocity...
