  • We show that quantum rotational wavepacket dynamics in molecules can be described by a new system-environment model, which consists of a rotational subsystem coupled to a magnetically tunable spin bath formed by the nuclear spins within the molecule. The central rotor model shares similarities with the paradigmatic central spin model, but features much richer rotational dynamics that is sensitive to the molecule's environment, which can be initiated and probed with short laser pulses used to control molecular orientation and alignment. We present numerical simulations of the nuclear-spin-bath-induced rotational decoherence dynamics of KRb molecules, which exhibit remarkable sensitivity to an external magnetic field. Our results show that ultracold molecular gases provide a natural platform for the experimental realization of the CRM.
