Evaluation of the magnetic moment ofRa213
1991
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…
Broadening and intensity redistribution in theNa(3p)hyperfine excitation spectra due to optical pumping in the weak excitation limit
2008
Detailed analysis of spectral line broadening and variations in relative intensities of hyperfine spectral components due to optical pumping is presented. Hyperfine levels of sodium 3p1/2 and 3p3/2 levels are selectively excited in a supersonic beam at various laser intensities under the conditions when optical pumping time is shorter than transit time of atoms through the laser beam. The excitation spectra exhibit significant line broadening at laser intensities well below the saturation intensity, and redistribution of intensities of hyperfine spectral components is observed, which in some cases is contradicting with intuitive expectations. Theoretical analysis of the dynamics of optical …
Precise determination of the ground state hyperfine structure splitting of43Ca II
1994
We have performed a laser microwave double resonance experiment on43Ca+ ions stored in a Paul ion trap. The ground state hfs splitting has been determined to Δν=3 225 608 286. 4(3) Hz. The value is corrected for small Zeeman, Stark and second order Doppler shifts as well as for light shift effects caused by the laserfields. The uncertainty is mainly determined by the errors of these corrections.
Ion trap nuclear resonance on $\mathsf{^{151}Eu^ + }$
2003
Laser-microwave double resonance techniques applied to a cloud of a natural mixture of Eu + isotopes confined in a Penning trap has been used to induce and detect nuclear Zeeman transitions. In spite of the complex level structure of Eu + and overlapping spectra from the two isotopes five different $\Delta m_I = 1$ transitions could be observed from which the nuclear magnetic moment can be derived. We obtain for 151 Eu + g I = 1.377 34(6) demonstrating the potential for high accuracy of the technique. The experiment can be considered as a feasibility test that precise spectroscopy data using the ion storage technique can be obtained of very complex ions and under unfavourable conditions.
Fluorescence of rubidium in a submicrometer vapor cell: spectral resolution of atomic transitions between Zeeman sublevels in a moderate magnetic fie…
2005
It is experimentally demonstrated that use of an extremely thin cell (ETC) with the thickness of a Rb atomic vapor column of ∼400 nm allows one to resolve a large number of individual transitions between Zeeman sublevels of the D1 line of 87Rb and 85Rb in the sub-Doppler fluorescence excitation spectra in an external magnetic field of ∼200 G. It is revealed that due to the peculiarities of the Zeeman effect for different hyperfine levels of Rb, all allowed transitions between magnetic sublevels can be clearly resolved for 87RbF_g = 1 --> F_e = 1, 2 and F_g = 2 --> F_e = 1, 2 fluorescence excitation. Also, relatively good spectral resolution can be achieved for 85RbF_g = 2 --> F_e = 2, 3 flu…
Hyperfine transitions in the first overtone mode of hydrogen deuteride
2020
Beyond the metrology and computational challenges associated with molecular hydrogen, key data are expected to assess the physics of simple molecular systems, and even the new physics beyond the standard model. To assist the deciphering of Doppler-free spectra obtained at very high accuracy ($\ensuremath{\sim}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}9})$, we report on hyperfine transitions of HD in the lowest vibrational levels of the ground electronic state. Using the spin-rotation, nuclear spin-spin, and quadrupolar hyperfine couplings determined by means of high-level quantum-chemical calculations, the hyperfine energy levels and the associated line intensity have been obtained by using tensorial momentum al…
Transition cancellations of 87Rb and 85Rb atoms in a magnetic field
2020
We have analyzed the magnetic field dependencies of the intensities of all the optical transitions between magnetic sublevels of hyperfine levels, excited with σ + , π , and σ − polarized light, for the D 1 and D 2 lines of 87 R b and 85 R b atoms. Depending on the type of transition and the quantum numbers of the involved levels, the Hamiltonian matrices are of 1 × 1 , 2 × 2 , 3 × 3 , or 4 × 4 dimension. As an example, analytical expressions are presented for the case of 2 × 2 dimension matrices for the D 1 line of both isotopes. Eigenvalues and eigenkets are given, and the expression for the transition intensity as a function of B has been determined. It is found that some π transitions o…
Observation of the hyperfine transition in lithium-like bismuthBi20980+: Towards a test of QED in strong magnetic fields
2014
We performed a laser spectroscopic determination of the $2s$ hyperfine splitting (HFS) of Li-like ${}^{209}{\text{Bi}}^{80+}$ and repeated the measurement of the $1s$ HFS of H-like ${}^{209}{\text{Bi}}^{82+}$. Both ion species were subsequently stored in the Experimental Storage Ring at the GSI Helmholtzzentrum f\"ur Schwerionenforschung Darmstadt and cooled with an electron cooler at a velocity of $\ensuremath{\approx}0.71\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}c$. Pulsed laser excitation of the $M1$ hyperfine transition was performed in anticollinear and collinear geometry for ${\text{Bi}}^{82+}$ and ${\text{Bi}}^{80+}$, respectively, and observed by fluorescence detection. We obtain $\ensuremath{\De…
Relativistic J-dependence of the isotope shift in the 6s-6p doublet of Ba II
1984
The collinear laser-ion beam technique has been used to measure the isotope shift and hyperfine structure in the 6s-6p doublet (4,934A, 4,554A) of Ba II for all seven stable isotopes. The influence of the excited2P1/2 and2P3/2 states on the field shift leads to a difference of 2.5(3)% in the electronicF factors. The specific mass shifts differ by {A′-A} 2.2(3) MHz which corresponds to about 12% of the normal mass shift.
An improved value for the hyperfine splitting of hydrogen-like209Bi82+
2015
We report an improved measurement of the hyperfine splitting in hydrogen-like bismuth (209Bi82+) at the experimental storage ring ESR at GSI by laser spectroscopy on a coasting beam. Accuracy was improved by about an order of magnitude compared to the first observation in 1994. The most important improvement is an in situ high voltage measurement at the electron cooler (EC) platform with an accuracy at the 10 ppm level. Furthermore, the space charge effect of the EC current on the ion velocity was determined with two independent techniques that provided consistent results. The result of nm provides an important reference value for experiments testing bound-state quantum electrodynamics in t…
