Nuclear Spins and Magnetic Moments ofCu71,73,75: Inversion ofπ2p3/2andπ1f5/2Levels inCu75

We report the first confirmation of the predicted inversion between the pi2p3/2 and pi1f5/2 nuclear states in the nu(g)9/2 midshell. This was achieved at the ISOLDE facility, by using a combination of in-source laser spectroscopy and collinear laser spectroscopy on the ground states of 71,73,75Cu, which measured the nuclear spin and magnetic moments. The obtained values are mu(71Cu)=+2.2747(8)mu(N), mu(73Cu)=+1.7426(8)mu(N), and mu(75Cu)=+1.0062(13)mu(N) corresponding to spins I=3/2 for 71,73Cu and I=5/2 for 75Cu. The results are in fair agreement with large-scale shell-model calculations.

Isotope shift measurements in the 2s1/2→ 2p3/2transition of Be+and extraction of the nuclear charge radii for7, 10, 11Be

International audience; shift measurements in the 2s 1/2 → 2p 3/2 transition of Be + and extraction of the nuclear charge radii for 7, 10, 11 Be Abstract. We have performed isotope shift measurements in the 2s 1/2 → 2p 3/2 transition of Be + ions using advanced collinear laser spectroscopy with two counterpropagating laser beams. Measurements involving a frequency comb for laser stabilization and absolute frequency determination allowed us to determine the isotope shifts with an accuracy of 2 MHz. From the isotope shifts between 9 Be and 7, 10, 11 Be, high-accuracy mass shift calculations and the charge radius of the reference isotope 9 Be we determined nuclear charge radii for the isotopes…

Nuclear mean-square charge radii of $^{63,64,66,68−82}$Ga nuclei: No anomalous behavior at N=32

Collinear laser spectroscopy was performed on the 63,64,66,68−82Ga isotopes with neutron numbers from N = 32 to N = 51. These measurements were carried out at the ISOLDE radioactive ion beam facility at CERN. Here we present the nuclear mean-square charge radii extracted from the isotope shifts and, for the lighter isotopes, new spin and moment values. New ground-state nuclear spin and moments were extracted from the hyperfine spectra of 63,70Ga, measured on an atomic transition in the neutral atom. The ground-state spin of 63Ga is determined to be I = 3/2. Analysis of the trend in the change in mean-square charge radii of the gallium isotopes demonstrates that there is no evidence of anoma…
