Rubidium 111-113 spindlin 1 Homo sapiens 94-98 27805105-7 1996 After testing the effect of systematically modifying the short-range form of the molecular potentials over a reasonable range, and introducing our best estimate of the second-order spin-orbit interaction, we estimate that in the low temperature limit the rate coefficient for loss of Rb atoms from the f = 2,m = 2 state is between 0.4 x 10-15 cm3/s and 2.4 x 10-15 cm3/s (where this number counts two atoms lost per collision).
