The goal of the present article is to review the major developments that have led to the
current understanding of molecule–field interactions and experimental methods for …

Harnessing the potential wide-ranging quantum science applications of molecules will
require control of their interactions. Here, we used microwave radiation to directly engineer …

Recent years have witnessed tremendous progress in creating and manipulating ground-
state ultracold polar molecules. However, the two-body loss regardless of the chemical …

Over the past decade, and particularly the past five years, a quiet revolution has been
building at the border between atomic physics and experimental quantum chemistry. The …

Ultracold molecules offer unprecedented opportunities for the controlled interrogation of
molecular events, including chemical reactivity in the ultimate quantum regime. The …

Since the original work on Bose–Einstein condensation,, the use of quantum degenerate
gases of atoms has enabled the quantum emulation of important systems in condensed …

Anisotropy is a fundamental property of particle interactions. It occupies a central role in cold
and ultracold molecular processes, where orientation-dependent long-range forces have …

We use microwaves to engineer repulsive long-range interactions between ultracold polar
molecules. The resulting shielding suppresses various loss mechanisms and provides large …

Quantum phenomena in the translational motion of reactants, which are usually negligible at
room temperature, can dominate reaction dynamics at low temperatures. In such cold …

This work introduces a novel methodology for the quantification of uncertainties associated
with potential energy surfaces (PESs) computed from first-principles quantum mechanical …
