Evaluation of the magnetic moments of radium isotopes

Using the relativistic linked cluster many-body perturbation procedure we have obtained the hyperfine field at the nucleus of the Ra+ ion in the2S1/2 ground state. There is good agreement between the calculated magnetic moment of213Ra and the results of a recent Zeeman measurement by the collinear laser beam technique. Detailed comparison is carried out between our result and earlier ones.

Evaluation of the magnetic moment ofRa213

The hyperfine field at the nucleus of singly ionized radium has been investigated using the relativistic linked-cluster many-body-perturbation-theory procedure, including the effects of distributed charge and magnetization over the nucleus. The total hyperfine field of 1239 T, when combined with the experimentally observed hyperfine constant for $^{213}\mathrm{Ra}^{+}$, yields a nuclear moment of 0.607(12)${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\mu}}}_{\mathit{N}}$, in excellent agreement with the experimentally observed moment of 0.6133(18)${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\mu}}}_{\mathit{N}}$ from Zeeman measurements. Our investigation leads to exchange core-polarization and correlation contributions of 14% and 13%, r…

Scintillation properties of possible cross-luminescence materials

Abstract Employing X-ray and gamma-ray excitation, we studied the scintillation properties of KMgF 3 , KYF 4 :Rb, K 2 YF 5 , KLuF 4 , RbMgF 3 , KZnF 3 and BaTm 2 F 8 crystals. The first four crystals produce intrinsic cross-luminescence (CL) with a decay time of about 1.5 ns. Intrinsic CL was not observed for the other crystals. Emission spectra, results of decay time measurements, and estimates for the absolute light yield are presented.
