Precise determination of the ground state hyperfine splitting of135Ba+
1983
A microwave-optical double resonance experiment has been performed on135Ba+ ions, confined in a r.f. quadrupole trap. Linewidths as narrow as 0.9 Hz have been obtained on the 7.18 GHz,F=1,m=0 toF=2,m=0 transition. Shifts of the resonance frequency due to magnetic stray fields and the electric trapping field have been observed. The final result, extrapolated to zero field strengths, isΔ υHFS=7183340234.90(0.57) Hz.
Halo excitations in fragmentation of He at 240 MeV/u on carbon and lead targets
2000
Dissociation of a 240 MeV/u beam of He-6, incident on carbon and lead targets, has been studied in kinematically complete experiments to investigate low-lying excitation modes in the halo nucleus He-6. It is shown that alignment effects characterize the inelastic scattering and allow an unambiguous assignment of the spin of a narrow resonance observed in the excitation energy spectrum. The differential cross sections for the He-6 inelastic scattering on carbon and lead targets were deduced from the measured moments of the two neutrons and the a-particle. An analysis of these distributions shows that quadrupole and, possibly, monopole excitations characterize the hadronic interaction, while …
Absolute transmission and separation properties of the gas-filled recoil separator RITU
2011
Abstract The absolute transmission values of the RITU gas-filled recoil separator have been measured for several fusion evaporation products. Three different beams and several targets were used to create fusion evaporation residues in mass region A =170–190 mainly in neutron evaporation channels. Measured absolute transmission values from around 7% up to round about 90% have been observed for very asymmetric and symmetric reactions, respectively. For the reactions studied it was observed that the angular spread of products after the target and the angular acceptance of RITU determine the transmission probability relatively accurately. Magnetic rigidities and equilibrium charges of the produ…
Axisymmetric core collapse simulations using characteristic numerical relativity
2003
We present results from axisymmetric stellar core collapse simulations in general relativity. Our hydrodynamics code has proved robust and accurate enough to allow for a detailed analysis of the global dynamics of the collapse. Contrary to traditional approaches based on the 3+1 formulation of the gravitational field equations, our framework uses a foliation based on a family of outgoing light cones, emanating from a regular center, and terminating at future null infinity. Such a coordinate system is well adapted to the study of interesting dynamical spacetimes in relativistic astrophysics such as stellar core collapse and neutron star formation. Perhaps most importantly this procedure allo…
The first cooled beams from JYFL ion cooler and trap project
2002
Abstract A ion manipulation scheme employing a linear radiofrequency quadrupole and a Penning trap is described. It provides means to improve emittance, cool, bunch and mass-purify the existing ion beams from an Ion Guide Isotope Separator while preserving its fast operation. The ion beam cooler is operational and capable to cool ion beam down to eV regime in few ms with at least 60 percent transmission.
A linear radiofrequency quadrupole ion trap for the cooling and bunching of radioactive ion beams
2000
A linear radiofrequency quadrupole ion guide and beam buncher has been installed at the ISOLTRAP mass spectrometry experiment at the ISOLDE facility at CERN. The apparatus is being used as a beam cooling, accumulation, and bunching system. It operates with a buffer gas that cools the injected ions and converts the quasicontinuous 60- keV beam from the ISOLDE facility to 2.5-keV beam pulses with improved normalized transverse emittance. Recent measurements suggest a capture efficiency of the ion guide of up to 40% and a cooling and bunching efficiency of at least 12% which is expected to still be increased. The improved ISOLTRAP setup has so far been used very successfully in three on-line e…
A highly selective laser ion source for bunched, low emittance beam release
2004
A novel type of resonance ionization laser ion source (RILIS) is under development, which combines the advantages of laser ionization with those of a source-implemented ion trap. This laser ion source trap (LIST) system, based on a gas-filled linear radio-frequency quadrupole ion trap, decouples the evaporation and ionization process by introduction of a primary surface ion repeller. Apart from significantly enhancing the selectivity in radioactive ion beam production, optimum control on the temporal pulse structure and the emittance of the generated laser ion bunch is obtained. A variety of operational modes from quasi-dc to microseconds-bunched ion beams with variable repetition rate can …
An isomeric 19+ state of the $$\pi h_{{9 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {9 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}}^2 i_{1{3 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom…
1978
Usingα-particles of energies 35–51 MeV and in-beam conversion electron andγ-spectroscopy techniques, a 4.0±1.7 μs core-excited 19+ isomeric state in210At with ag-factor of 0.737±0.025 has been observed at an excitation energy of 4027.7 keV. The 19+ state is suggested to have the $$\pi h_{{9 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {9 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}}^2 i_{1{3 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {3 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} vg_{{9 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {9 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} (j^{ - 2} )_{0^ + }$$ configuration with maximum alignment of the angular momenta. The total two-particle core polarization due to theh 9/2 andi 13/2 protons and theg 9/2 n…

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…
