Ion Trap
• Ions are trapped in an oscillating quadrupole field
• Ion stability is based on charge to mass ratio
• Radial pseudopotential is weaker for larger masses

After n absorption-emission cycles, the average atom momentum is reduced by nħk.
Absorbed photons must be resonant with the Doppler-shifted transition.
Cooling rate and temperature limit are proportional to the linewidth.

Conclusions and Outlook
Single ion techniques can be used to accurately measure lines for both allowed and forbidden transitions
BH+ is a promising candidate for direct laser cooling
Vibrational overtones of CaH+ are good QLS candidates (wavelengths from M. Kajita) 9-0 889.4 nm 10-0 819.5 nm 11-0 764.18 nm
