Long-range macrodimers formed by $D$-state cesium Rydberg atoms are studied in experiments and calculations. Cesium ${[62{D}_{J}]}_{2}$ Rydberg-atom macrodimers, bonded via long-range multipole interaction, are prepared by two-color photoassociation in a cesium atom trap. The first color (pulse A) resonantly excites seed Rydberg atoms, while the second (pulse B, detuned by the molecular binding energy) resonantly excites the Rydberg-atom macrodimers below the ${[62{D}_{J}]}_{2}$ asymptotes. The…
