Strongly Red-Emissive Molecular Ruby [Cr(bpmp)2]3+ Surpasses [Ru(bpy)3]2+
2021
Gaining chemical control over the thermodynamics and kinetics of photoexcited states is paramount to an efficient and sustainable utilization of photoactive transition metal complexes in a plethora of technologies. In contrast to energies of charge transfer states described by spatially separated orbitals, the energies of spin-flip states cannot straightforwardly be predicted as Pauli repulsion and the nephelauxetic effect play key roles. Guided by multireference quantum chemical calculations, we report a novel highly luminescent spin-flip emitter with a quantum chemically predicted blue-shifted luminescence. The spin-flip emission band of the chromium complex [Cr(bpmp)2]3+ (bpmp = 2,6-bis(…

Role of triaxiality in the ground-state shape of neutron-rich Yb, Hf, W, Os and Pt isotopes
2009
The evolution of the ground-state shape of several isotopes of Yb, Hf, W, Os and Pt along the triaxial landscape is analyzed using the self-consistent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approximation. Two well-reputed interactions (Gogny D1S and Skyrme SLy4) have been used in the study in order to assess to which extent the results are independent of the details of the effective interaction. A large number of even-even nuclei, with neutron numbers from N = 110 up to N = 122, have been considered, covering in this way a vast extension of the nuclear landscape where signatures of oblate-prolate shape transitions have already manifested both theoretically and experimentally.
Collectivity in ${}^{\mathrm{196,198}}$Pb isotopes probed in Coulomb-excitation experiments at REX-ISOLDE
2017
The neutron-deficient ${}^{\mathrm{196,198}}$Pb isotopes have been studied in Coulomb-excitation experiments employing the Miniball γ-ray spectrometer and radioactive ion beams from the REX-ISOLDE post-accelerator at CERN. The reduced transition probabilities of the first excited 2+ states in 196Pb and 198Pb nuclei have been measured for the first time. Values of $B(E2)={18.2}_{-4.1}^{+4.8}$ W.u. and $B(E2)={13.1}_{-3.5}^{+4.9}$ W.u., were obtained, respectively. The experiment sheds light on the development of collectivity when moving from the regime governed by the generalised seniority scheme to a region, where intruding structures, associated with different deformed shapes, start to com…

Time integral and time differential Mössbauer measurements on [57Co/Mn(bipy)3](PF6)2
1994
The Mossbauer emission spectra of nucleogenic iron(II) complexes with a low spin (LS) ground state show two metastable iron(II) high spin (HS) states at low temperatures. In order to identify these metastable HS states, the compound [57Co/Mn(bipyridine)3](PF6)2 has been studied by time differential Mossbauer emission spectroscopy (TDMES) and optical lifetime measurements of excited electronic states in the corresponding Fe-doped Mn compound. The lifetime of one of the HS states of the nucleogenic iron(II) determined by TDMES has been measured to be the same as the lifetime of the laser-excited iron(II) electronic state.
Lifetime measurements in99Sr and100Zr
1989
The lifetime of the first excited state in99Sr has been determined by the delayed γ-γ coincidence method. The value of t/2=0.58(9) ns corresponds to a deformation parameter s=0.38(4). The deduced value confirms the previously proposed ν[411]3/2 Nilsson assignment for the99Sr ground state. In addition, lifetime values for the 2+ (t1/2=0.40(8) ns) and 0+ (t1/2=5.36(23) ns) states in100Zr are obtained, which deviate from older measurements and indicate a larger deformation of s=0.39(4).
How to measure nuclear ground-state properties in simple systems such as 11Li or U91+?
2008
Abstract Atomic spectroscopy yields key information on properties of ground and isomeric states via a determination of the hyperfine structure and isotope shift. In order to deduce precise nuclear moments and charge radii, the electromagnetic fields produced by the electrons at the site of the nucleus must be known with high accuracy. This is presently possible only for simple systems with very few electrons. This contribution describes two scenarios for such experiments: the determination of the charge radius of the neutron-rich isotopes 8,9Li and of the halo nucleus 11Li at the on-line isotope separators at GSI and TRIUMF and the Highly charged Ion TRAP (HITRAP) facility which is under co…
Towards on-line production of N=Z94Ag at IGISOL
2008
Abstract A future study of the ground state and low-lying isomeric states of 94 Ag and 96 Ag at the Ion Guide Isotope Separator On-Line (IGISOL) facility, University of Jyvaskyla, requires the development of a low-energy beam of neutron-deficient silver. In order to attain the highest possible extraction efficiencies the coupling of a hot cavity graphite catcher device to the IGISOL mass-separator is planned. A heavy-ion fusion-evaporation reaction will produce the silver recoils which will be captured in the graphite catcher. Resonant laser ionization techniques will be applied to efficiently and selectively ionize the evaporated silver atoms. A simulation program has been written to study…
