Abstract

This chapter discusses three examples of quantum effects that can be observed in state-of-the-art experiments with molecular beams-scattering resonances as a probe of interparticle interactions in cold collisions, the protection of Fano-Feshbach resonances against decay despite resonant coupling to a scattering continuum, and a circular dichroism in photoelectron angular distributions arising in the photoionization of randomly oriented chiral molecules. The molecular beam setup provides molecules in well-defined quantum states. This, together with a theoretical description based on first principles, allows for excellent agreement between theoretical prediction and experimental observation and thus a rigorous understanding of the observed quantum effects.
