Abstract: In this work, the authors report on the observation of heteronuclear ultralong-range Rydberg molecules, together with a detailed theoretical analysis of the experimental data. Such heteronuclear Rydberg molecules are expected to present many new opportunities for studying quantum systems, such as probing interparticle and interspecies pair correlation functions in multicomponent many-body systems, exploring the sensitivity of the isotope shift to the mass polarization energy for Rydberg trimers or larger molecules, or studying new types of Rydberg impurities in quantum gases.
