Disassociation of a one-dimensional cold molecule via quantum scattering

Motivated by the recent experimental developments in ultracold molecules and atoms, we propose a simple theoretical model to address the disassociation, reflection, and transmission probability of a one-dimensional cold molecule via quantum scattering. First, we show the Born approximation results in the weak interaction regime. Then, by employing the Lippmann–Schwinger equation, we give the numerical solution and investigate the disassociation’s dependence on the injection momentum and the interaction strengths. We find that the maximum disassociation rate has a limit when increasing the interaction strengths and injection momentum. We expect that our model can be realized in experiments in the near future.
