超冷原子分子量子模拟取得实质性突破

中国科学技术大学潘建伟、赵博等利用超冷原子分子量子模拟在化学物理研究中取得重大突破：通过对磁场的精确调控，首次在实验上观测到超低温度下基态分子与原子之间的散射共振，向基于超冷原子分子的超冷量子化学研究迈进了重要一步。2019年1月18日，这一重要研究成果发表在国际权威学术期刊《科学》上。

A team led by Prof. Jianwei PAN and Prof. Bo ZHAO at the University of Science and Technology of China, has successfully observed scattering resonances between atoms and molecules at ultralow temperatures, shedding light on the quantum nature of atom-molecule interactions that have so far only been discussed in theory. These observations greatly aid in the advancement of ultracold polar molecules and ultracold chemical physics. On January 18, 2019，this first-of-its-kind study is published in the journalScience.
