We also calculate the Stark energy shift of different quantum states of CH radical in the Stark decelerator electrostatic field and their populations in a supersonic CH molecular beam. Our study shows that the mean velocity of the supersonic CH molecular beam in the 2^∏1/2 state can be decelerated from 380 m/s to 24 m/s, and the corresponding translation temperature is lowered from 2.8 K to 27mK. It is thus clear that the CH radical is a new and desirable candidate for Stark deceleration.展开更多
