Photoassociation spectroscopy of {sup 88}Sr: Reconstruction of the wave function near the last node
- Engineering Research Institute, University of Tokyo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113-8656 (Japan)
We have investigated photoassociation (PA) spectra of ultracold {sup 88}Sr atoms near the 5s{sup 2} {sup 1}S{sub 0}+5s5p {sup 1}P{sub 1} atomic asymptote. The intensity modulation of the PA lines was used to reconstruct the ground-state scattering wave function, whose last nodal point was determined to be r{sub 0}=3.78(18) nm. The PA lines also determined a precise lifetime of the {sup 1}P{sub 1} state to be 5.263(4) ns.
