Lewandowski Group - Quantum Chemical Physics
We are Hiring!
Our group is looking for new graduate and undergraduate students to work on these projects! Contact Heather Lewandowski if interested to see if our group might be a good fit for you.
Quantum Chemical Physics Research Areas
Laser-cooled atomic ions can serve as an ultra cold thermal bath for molecular ions. By performing chemical reactions with these molecules in an ultra-high vacuum environment, we can probe fundamental chemical physics at the quantum level.
The second generation ion trap system can be cryogenically cooled to 4 Kelvin. This offers ro-vibrationally cold ions and neutral collision partners, which open the doors to precision spectroscopy of reaction products to gain insight into structure and quantum states after a reaction has occurred.
