Effects of conical intersections on hyperfine quenching of hydroxyl OH in collision with an ultracold Sr atom

Abstract The effect of conical intersections (CIs) on electronic relaxation, transitions from excited states to ground states, is well studied, but their influence on hyperfine quenching in a reactant molecule is not known. Here, we report on ultracold collision dynamics of the hydroxyl free-radical...
