| dc.description.abstract | Scattering and ionizing cross sections and rates are calculated for ultracold collisions between metastable helium atoms using a fully quantum-mechanical close-coupled formalism. Homonuclear collisions of the bosonic 4He∗+4He∗ and fermionic 3He∗+3He∗ systems, and heteronuclear collisions of the mixed 3He∗+4He∗ system, are investigated over the temperature range 1μK to 1 K. Carefully constructed Born-Oppenheimer molecular potentials are used to describe the electrostatic interaction between the colliding atoms, and complex optical potentials to represent loss through ionization from the 1,3Σ states. Magnetic spin-dipole-mediated transitions from the 5Σ state are included and results reported for spin-polarized and unpolarized systems. Comparisons are made with experimental results, previous semiclassical models, and a perturbed single-channel model. | en_AU |
