Tutorials

The pairinteraction software comes with a graphical user interface (GUI) and a Python API. The GUI provides a quick way to calculate Rydberg interaction potentials, lifetimes, and energy shifts in the presence of external fields. The Python API is designed to automatize calculations and to have more fine-grained control.

Tutorials - Python API

Introduction

The following jupyter notebooks introduce the Python API. The other tutorials build on this introduction.

Examples Demonstrating Basic Usage

We show exemplary applications of the Python API, ranging from the calculation of single-atom properties such as lifetimes to calculations of pair potentials.

Examples From Publications

We show how pairinteraction’s Python API can be applied to solve complex problems and reproduce results from literature.

Tutorials - Graphical User Interface

The graphical user interface (GUI) of pairinteraction can be started by executing

pairinteraction gui

from the command line. Tutorials for the graphical user interface will be added in the future.
