• Abstract: We calculate bound and scattering properties of a system of two neutral atoms and an ion near an atom-ion Feshbach resonance. Our results indicate that long-range atom-ion interactions lead to significant deviations from universal behavior derived from contact or van der Waals potentials. We find that ionic systems display an overall suppression of inelastic transitions leading to recombination rates and lifetimes of Efimov state orders of magnitude smaller with respect to those for neutral atoms. We further characterize the dense spectra of triatomic molecular ions with extended lifetimes. Our results provide a deeper insight on the universality and structure of three-body ionic systems and establishing them as a promising platform for exploring novel few- and many-body phenomena with long-range interactions.

• Trapped ion-mediated interactions between two distant trapped atoms [0.0]
  We show that when two largely separated atoms interact with a trapped ion via Rydberg excitation of the atoms, the ion-mediated interaction exceeds the direct atom-atom interaction by several orders of magnitude. Since the motion of the atoms is much slower than the motion of the ion, we resort to Born-Oppenheimer approximation to calculate the ion-mediated adiabatic potential.

  We prove a recent conjecture for open chaotic systems, which claims that resonance states are composed of two factors. In particular, we demonstrate that one factor is given by universal exponentially distributed intensity fluctuations. The other factor, supposed to be a classical density depending on the lifetime of the resonance state, is found to be very well described by a classical construction.
