Millimeter wave spectroscopy of ultracold Rydberg atoms

POSTER

Abstract

An ultracold sample of highly-excited atoms can exchange energy through dipole-dipole interactions. We explore the use of millimeter wave spectroscopy as a tool for more precisely characterizing the dynamics of this energy exchange.
