Repeating 3-body collisions in a trap and the evaluation of interactions of neutral particles

TL;DR

This paper proposes a theoretical model to study repeated 3-body collisions among neutral particles in a trap, showing how interaction information can be derived from time-dependent density observations.

Contribution

It introduces a new model for analyzing repeated 3-body collisions in traps to evaluate weak interactions among neutral atoms and molecules.

Findings

Interaction information can be extracted from time-dependent density data.

Repeated 3-body collisions provide a novel way to study weak interactions.

The model offers a theoretical framework for future experimental analysis.

Abstract

A model of a device is proposed and related theoretical calculation is performed to study the weak interactions among neutral atoms and molecules. In this model 3-body collisions among the neutral particles occur repeatedly in a trap. Results of calculation demonstrate that information on interaction can be obtained by observing the time-dependent densities of the system.
