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.
Observation of strongly deformed ground-state configurations in $^{184}$Au and $^{183}$Au by laser spectroscopy
1988
Resonance ionization mass spectroscopy (RIMS) and pulsed-laser induced desorption (PLID) have been combined in order to study the isotope shift (IS) and hyperfine structure (HFS) of184Au (T1/2=53 s) and183Au (T1/2=42 s) in the 6s2S1/2 → 6p2P1/2 (λ=267 nm) transition. The Au isotopes were obtained as daughters in the decay of184,183Hg produced and mass separated at the new ISOLDE-3 facility at CERN. It was found that the strong deformationβ2}-0.25 setting in at186Au persists down to183Au.
Isotope shift of182Hg and an update of nuclear moments and charge radii in the isotope range181Hg-206Hg
1986
The technique of collinear fast-beam laser spectroscopy has been used to measure the isotope shifts of the even-even isotopes of Hg (Z=80) in the mass range 182≤A≤198 at the on-line mass separator ISOLDE at CERN. The atomic transition studied (6s 6p 3 P 2- 6s7s 3 S 1,λ=546.1 nm) starts from a metastable state, which is populated in a quasi resonant charge transfer process. The resulting changes in nuclear mean square charge radii show clearly that182Hg follows the trend of the heavier, even, weakly oblate isotopes. Correspondingly the huge odd-even shape staggering in the light Hg isotopes continues and the nuclear shape staggering and shape coexistence persists down to the last isotope inv…
Laser spectroscopy for nuclear structure physics
2016
High-resolution laser spectroscopy is an established powerful tool in the study of nuclear shape, size and multipole moments. Measurements of the hyperfine structures and isotope shifts in the atomic spectra of radioactive nuclei provide unique insight into the evolution of the nuclear macroscopic shape and microscopic structure. These measurements can be made with high precision and high sensitivity and applied directly on-line at radioactive nuclear beam facilities. Recent measurements, advances at facilities and the future direction of the field are reviewed. A summary of experimental data is presented. peerReviewed
Ground-state properties of neutron-deficient platinum isotopes
1992
The hyperfine structure splitting and the isotope shift in the λ=266 nm transition of Pt isotopes within the mass range 183 ≦A≦ 198 have been determined by Resonance Ionization Mass Spectroscopy (RIMS) in combination with Pulsed-Laser Induced Desorption (PLID). The Pt isotopes were obtained at the on-line isotope separator ISOLDE-3/CERN as daugthers of the primarily produced Hg isotopes. Magnetic moments, quadrupole moments, and changes in the mean-square charge radii are deduced and compared with results of a particle-triaxial rotor model and mean field calculations. Good agreement with experimental data (including nuclear level schemes and transition probabilities) can only be obtained if…
Quadrupole moments and mean-square charge radii in the bismuth isotope chain
1997
Abstract Isotope shifts and hyperfine structures of the 205,206,208,210,210m,212,213 Bi isotopes have been studied on the 306.7 nm line using gas cell laser spectroscopy. The neutron-rich isotopes are the first isotones of Pb to be measured immediately above the N = 126 shell closure. The ground state quadrupole moments of the even- N isotopes increase as neutrons are added or removed from the N = 126 shell, but no corresponding increase is observed in the charge radii.
Hyperfine structure andg-factor measurements in ion traps
1992
We report about measurements on ground-state hyperfine splitting constants of stable Eu+ isotopes in radio frequency ion traps and experiments on the electronicg-factor of Ba+ in a Penning trap. From the precision of both measurements, which ranges between 3·10−6 and 5·10−7, we conclude that precise determination of the differential Bohr-Weisskopf effect in chains of isotopes will be possible in the near future.
Nuclear moments and charge radii of107?111in determined by laser spectroscopy
1985
Collinear fast beam laser spectroscopy has been used to measure the hyperfine structure and isotope shift in the atomic 5s 2 5p 2 P 3/2-5s 2 6s 2 S 1/2 transition (λ=451 nm) of107–111In. Secondary beams of neutron deficient indium isotopes were prepared at the GSI on-line mass separator following fusion evaporation reactions. Magnetic dipole moments and electric quadrupole moments have been determined. The isotope shifts are discussed in terms of the change of the mean square nuclear charge radii and compared with the droplet model predictions and the deformation values calculated from the quadrupole moments.
Laser-spectroscopy measurements of 72–96Kr spins, moments and charge radii
1994
Abstract The spins, moments and radii of krypton isotopes have been investigated by collinear fast-beam laser spectroscopy in combination with ultra-sensitive collisional ionization detection. The sequence of isotopes under study ranges from the neutron-deficient N = Z = 36 isotope 72 Kr to the neutron-rich 96 Kr ( N = 60). The mean-square charge radii in the neighbourhood of the N = 50 neutron-shell closure exhibit a pronounced shell effect which has recently been explained in the framework of relativistic mean-field theory. The results for the neutron-deficient nuclei are related to the shape coexistence of strongly prolate and near-spherical states which is known from nuclear spectroscop…
