Laser cooling of YbF molecules for an improved measurement of the electron electric dipole moment

Cold molecules are attractive for a wide range of scientific applications, including quantum computation, the study of chemical reactions, and tests of fundamental physics. Laser cooling has proved to be an invaluable technique in the cooling of atoms. This technique was once thought to be infeasibl...
