Large Odd-even Radius Staggering In The Very Light Platinum Isotopes From Laser Spectroscopy
1999
Laser spectroscopy measurements have been carried out on very-neutron-deficient platinum isotopes with the COMPLIS experimental setup. Using the ${5d}^{9}{6s}^{3}{D}_{3}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{5d}^{9}{6p}^{3}{P}_{2}$ optical transition, hyperfine spectra of ${}^{182,181,180,179,178}\mathrm{Pt}$ and ${}^{183}{\mathrm{Pt}}^{m}$ were recorded for the first time. The variation of the mean square charge radius between these nuclei, the magnetic moments of the odd isotopes, and the quadrupole moment of ${}^{183}{\mathrm{Pt}}^{m}$ were thus measured. A large deformation change between ${}^{183}{\mathrm{Pt}}^{g}$ and ${}^{183}{\mathrm{Pt}}^{m},$ an odd-even staggering of the charge radius, and a d…
High precision measurement of the11Li and9Li quadrupole moment ratio using zero-fieldβ-NQR
2013
The ratio of electric quadrupole moments of 11 Li and 9 Li was measured using the zero-field β-detected nuclear quadrupole resonance technique at TRIUMFISAC. The precision on the ratio Q11/Q9 = 1.0775(12) was improved by more than one order of magnitude and an absolute value for the quadrupole moment of 11 Li was inferred. Systematic effects, as argued here, are not expected to contribute to the ratio on this scale. The zero-field spin-lattice relaxation time for 8 Li implanted within SrTiO3 at 295K in zero-field was found to be T1 = 1.73(2)s. A comparison of the quadrupole moments of 9,11 Li and their ratio is made with the latest models, however, no conclusion may yet be drawn owing to th…
Charge radius changes of even-even neutron-rich Tellurium isotopes
2005
Laser spectroscopy based on resonant ionization of laser-desorbed atoms has been used to study the neutron-rich tellurium isotopes with the COMPLIS facility at ISOLDE-CERN. The isotope shift and the hyperfine structure of several neutron-rich Te isotopes: $^{120–136}$Te and $^{123m–133m}$Te have been measured. From the hyperfine structure and the isotope shift we can extract the magnetic and quadrupole moments and the change in the mean square charge radius respectively. The mean square charge radii of the even-even isotopes have been deduced and their comparison with the known data for the other elements near Z=50 is presented. The experimental $\delta$ is compared with that obtained from …
Nuclear moments and charge radii of neutron-deficient francium isotopes and isomers
2015
Collinear laser fluorescence spectroscopy has been performed on the ground and isomeric states of 204,206Fr in order to determine their spins, nuclear moments, and changes in mean-squared charge radii. A new experimental technique has been developed as part of this work which much enhances the data collection rate while maintaining the high resolution. This has permitted the extension of this study to the two isomeric states in each nucleus. The investigation of nuclear g factors and mean-squared charge radii indicates that the neutron-deficient Fr isotopes lie in a transitional region from spherical towards more collective structures. peerReviewed
Charge-radius change and nuclear moments in the heavy tin isotopes from laser spectroscopy: Charge radius ofSn132
2005
Laser spectroscopy measurements have been carried out on the neutron-rich tin isotopes with the COMPLIS experimental setup. Using the $5{s}^{2}5{p}^{2\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}3}{P}_{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}5{s}^{2}5p6s\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}{}^{3}{P}_{1}$ optical transition, hyperfine spectra of $^{126\ensuremath{-}132}\mathrm{Sn}$ and $^{125,127,129\ensuremath{-}131}\mathrm{Sn}{}^{m}$ were recorded for the first time. The nuclear moments and the mean square charge radius variation ($\ensuremath{\delta}\ensuremath{\langle}{r}_{c}^{2}\ensuremath{\rangle}$) were extracted. From the quadrupole moment values, these nuclei appear to be spherical. The magnetic moments measured are thus co…
Nuclear Moments and Deformation Change inA184ug,mfrom Laser Spectroscopy
1997
Resonance ionization spectroscopy (RIS) was performed on desorbed Au, and the complete hyperfine spectrum of both isomeric and ground states of the short lived 184Au nucleus has been recorded from the 5d106s S1y2 ! 5d106p P3y2 optical transition. The nuclear moments of both states and the mean square charge radius changes were measured. The magnetic moments were determined to be m 184g I5 12.07s2dmN and m I2 11.44s2dmN and the spectroscopic quadrupole moments to be Q 184g s 14.65s26db and Q184m s 11.90s16d b. A difference in the mean square charge radius dkr2 c l184g,184m 20.036s3d fm2 was found. [S0031-9007(97)03992-6]
The Collinear Fast Beam laser Spectroscopy (Cfbs) experiment at Triumf
2016
Abstract Laser spectroscopy experiments at radioactive ion beam facilities around the world investigate properties of exotic nuclei for scientific endeavours such as, but not limited to, the investigation of nuclear structure. Advancements in experimental sensitivity and performance are continuously needed in order to extend the reach of nuclei that can be measured. The collinear fast beam laser spectroscopy ( Cfbs ) setup at Triumf , coupled to an out-of-plane radio-frequency quadrupole Paul trap, enables measurements of some of the most fundamental nuclear properties for long-lived ground and isomeric states. The first comprehensive overview of the Cfbs experiment is provided along with d…
Nuclear moments and charge radii of neutron-deficient francium isotopes and isomers
2015
Collinear laser fluorescence spectroscopy has been performed on the ground and isomeric states of $^{204,206}\mathrm{Fr}$ in order to determine their spins, nuclear moments, and changes in mean-squared charge radii. A new experimental technique has been developed as part of this work which much enhances the data collection rate while maintaining the high resolution. This has permitted the extension of this study to the two isomeric states in each nucleus. The investigation of nuclear $g$ factors and mean-squared charge radii indicates that the neutron-deficient Fr isotopes lie in a transitional region from spherical towards more collective structures.
Charge radius change in the heavy tin isotopes until A = 132 from laser spectroscopy
2001
Laser spectroscopy measurements have been carried out on the very neutron-rich tin isotopes with the COMPLIS experimental setup. Using the 5s 25p 23P 0 → 5s 25p6s 3P 1 optical transition, hyperfine spectra of 126-132Sn and 125m, 127m, 129m-131mSn where recorded for the first time. The variation of the mean-square charge radius ( δ〈r 2〉) between these nuclei and nuclear moments of the isomers and the odd isotopes were thus measured. An odd-even staggering which inverts at A = 130 is clearly observed. This indicates a small appearance of a plateau on the δ〈r 2〉 which has to be confirmed by measuring the isotope shift beyond A = 132.
