Production of cold atoms via photdissociation of small molecules
<p>This thesis describes the development of a relatively novel technique for the gen- eration and subsequent trapping of cold species. Molecules in a pulsed supersonic expansion are photolysed, such that the centre-of-mass velocity vector of one of the fragments is equal in magnitude but oppos...
