Abstract
We present an ultra-high resolution spectroscopic study of the photoassociation of cesium atoms inside a magnetooptical trap using trap-loss detection with photoassociation laser slow scanning. The photoassociation spectra show vibrational levels of three molecular symmetries below the 6S 1/2 + 6P 3/2 dissociation limit. A dynamic model is derived to extract the photoassociation rate from the trap-loss spectrum. Many observed rotational levels are well resolved, which indicate d-wave and higher partial wave contributions to the photoassociation cross section.
