Manipulating scattering of ultracold atoms with light-induced dissipation

Recently it has been shown that pairs of atoms can form metastable bonds due to non-conservative forces induced by dissipation [Lemeshko&Weimer, Nature Comm. textbf{4}, 2230 (2013)]. Here we study the dynamics of interaction-induced coherent population trapping -- the process responsible for...
