Accurate density measurement of a cold Rydberg gas via non collisional two-body transitions
We experimentally demonstrate an original method to measure very accurately the density of a frozen Rydberg gas. It is based on the use of adiabatic transitions induced by the long-range dipole–dipole interaction in pairs of nearest-neighbor Rydberg atoms by sweeping an electric field with time. The...
