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 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

Here we show the usage of the API. The first tutorial serves as a quick start guide.

Quick Start

Example of calculating Stark maps

Example of calculating Pair Potentials

Overview over different applications of the new pairinteraction software

Example calculating lifetimes

Example calculating C_3 and C_6 coefficients

Applications

The following jupyter notebooks show how the pairinteraction Python API can be applied to solve complex problems and reproduce results from literature.

Example calculating an effective Hamiltonian

Tutorials - Graphical User Interface

After following the installation instructions, the graphical user interface (GUI) of pairinteraction can be started by executing

pairinteraction gui

from the command line. Here as quick preview of the GUI:
