Towards cavity-control of a molecular quantum gas — Johannes Seifert, Marian Duerbeck, Nelson Werum, Lennard Reihs, Dalila Robledo, Juan Pablo Marulanda, Gerard Meijer, and •Giacomo Valtolina — Faradayweg 4-6, 14195 Berlin

We report on a new experimental apparatus for the creation of a dipolar quantum gas of atoms and molecules inside an high-finesse optical cavity. By coupling light to matter, we want to create and control new emergent particles, so-called molecular polaritons, that can display a different chemical reactivity with respect to the original system and use them to control chemical reactions at ultracold temperatures.

Keywords: ultracold atoms; ultracold molecules; cavity QED; cold chemical reactions
