(n)
molasses
The uncrystallized syrup produced in the manufacture of sugar. It properly differs from treacle in that it comes from sugar in the process of making, while treacle is obtained in the process of refining: but the two words are often used synonymously. -

Slower than molasses going uphill in January - (USA) To move extremely slowly. Molasses drips slowly anyway but add January cold and gravity, dripping uphill would be an impossibility, thereby making the molasses move very slowly indeed!

Mirror-mediated cooling: a paradigm for particle cooling via the retarded dipole force
By means of the two-level model, one can predict the equilibrium temperature, the socalled “Doppler” temperature TD , of atoms in molasses to be Γ, where Γ is the (half-width at half-maximum) linewidth of the transition from the excited to the ground level .
Scattering theory of multilevel atoms interacting with arbitrary radiation fields
Data from early three-dimensional molasses experiments contradicted this , showing that the achievable equilibrium temperature was in fact much lower.
Scattering theory of multilevel atoms interacting with arbitrary radiation fields
In that work we only considered the two-level atom model and showed, in particular, how our model can explain such mechanisms as standard optical molasses and mirror-mediated cooling .
