Systematics of nuclear charge distributions in Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn deduced from muonic x-ray measurements

The results of precise measurements of the energies of the $2{p}_{\frac{3}{2}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}1{s}_{\frac{1}{2}}$ and $2{p}_{\frac{1}{2}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}1{s}_{\frac{1}{2}}$ muonic x-ray transitions of $^{54}\mathrm{Fe}$, $^{56}\mathrm{Fe}$, $^{57}\mathrm{Fe}$, $^{58}\mathrm{Fe}$, $^{59}\mathrm{Co}$, $^{58}\mathrm{Ni}$, $^{60}\mathrm{Ni}$, $^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$, $^{62}\mathrm{Ni}$, $^{64}\mathrm{Ni}$, $^{63}\mathrm{Cu}$, $^{65}\mathrm{Cu}$, $^{64}\mathrm{Zn}$, $^{66}\mathrm{Zn}$, $^{68}\mathrm{Zn}$, and $^{70}\mathrm{Zn}$, are reported. Using a highly linear digitally stabilized Ge(Li) spectrometer system, the absolute energies and energy shifts between nuclei were measured with…
