Measurements of the production of ultralong-range Rydberg dimers through photoassocation in an ultracold atomic gas are reported. The molecular potential associated with the Rydberg state is anisotropic and the molecular states are characterized by the vibrational quantum number and the total angular momentum , where and are the electronic orbital angular momentum and rotational angular momentum, respectively. The measured molecular binding energies agree reasonably well with theoretical predictions. Additionally, the electron-atom scattering leads to broader line shapes in the photoassociation spectrum than might be expected simply from the angular momentum of the initial colliding cold-atom pairs.more » « less
