We propose a scheme to accumulate fermionic or bosonic NH radicals ((NH)-N-
14 or (NH)-N-15, respectively) in a magnetic trap in order to increase phas
e-space density. NH molecules prepared in a long-lived metastable state tha
t exhibits a large Stark effect can be brought to a standstill using Stark
deceleration. By applying an intense laser field, the NH radicals can then
be forced to spontaneously decay to the electronic ground state. In the gro
und state the NH molecules are no longer sensitive to electric fields but s
how a significant Zeeman effect instead, enabling confinement and reloading
of ground-state molecules in a magnetic trap.
