Rotational excitation of molecules in the regime of strong ro-vibrational coupling: Comparison between an optical centrifuge and a transform-limited pulse Koch, Christiane P. Milner, Valery García-Garrido, Juan Manuel González Férez, María Rosario Molecules optical centrifuge rotational dynamics vibrational dynamics We have performed a theoretical study of the rotational and vibrational dynamics of a molecule in an optical centrifuge and a linearly polarized Gaussian pulse of equal spectral width and pulse energy. This study has been published in Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics as a regular article entitled Rotational excitation of molecules in the regime of strong ro-vibrational coupling: Comparison between an optical centrifuge and a transform-limited pulse, coauthored by J.
