Charge radii and ground state structure of lithium isotopes: Experiment and theory reexamined
2011
Changes in the nuclear charge radii of lithium isotopes were determined using a combination of precise isotope shift measurements and theoretical atomic structure calculations. We discuss the choice of the reference isotope for absolute charge radii determinations in the lithium isotopic chain and report a new value for the charge radius of ${}^{6}$Li, based on the analysis of the world scattering data. A summary of the lithium nuclear charge radii obtained in this way is presented. Additionally, new calculations in fermionic molecular dynamics for the lithium isotopes were performed. We summarize the status of the lithium nuclear charge radii, magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole moment…
Fully self-consistent calculations of nuclear Schiff moments
2010
We calculate the Schiff moments of the nuclei 199Hg and 211Ra in completely self-consistent odd-nucleus mean-field theory by modifying the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov code HFODD. We allow for arbitrary shape deformation, and include the effects of nucleon dipole moments alongside those of a CP-violating pion-exchange nucleon-nucleon interaction. The results for 199Hg differ significantly from those of previous calculations when the CP-violating interaction is of isovector character.
Determination of the electron’s mass from g -factor experiments on 12 C 5+ and 16 O 7+
2003
Abstract We present a derivation of the electron’s mass from our experiment on the electronic g factor in 12C5+ and 16O7+ together with the most recent quantum electrodynamical predictions. The value obtained from 12C5+ is me=0.0005485799093(3) u, that from oxygen is me=0.0005485799092(5) u. Both values agree with the currently accepted one within 1.5 standard deviations but are four respectively two-and-a-half times more precise. The contributions to the uncertainties of our values and perspectives for the determination of the fine-structure constant α by an experiment on the bound-electron g factor are discussed.
Characterisation and compensation of magnetic distortions for the pixel Hybrid Photon Detectors of the LHCb RICH
2005
Abstract The LHCb experiment at LHC, optimised for the study of CP violation, has two RICH detectors to provide particle identification in the momentum range ∼ 2 – 100 GeV / c . The stringent requirements on the photon detectors are met by the custom-made pixel Hybrid Photon Detector. The photon detectors need to operate in the fringe field of the LHCb dipole magnet which will produce distortions of the image detected on the pixel chip which is encapsulated inside the HPD. This paper reports on the experimental characterisation of the image distortions caused by an external magnetic flux density. These measurements allow for the development of a parameterisation of the effects and a compens…
Determination of nuclear spins and moments in a series of radium isotopes
1983
Abstract The first investigation of hyperfine structure in radium isotopes has enabled the determination of nuclear spins, magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole moments of the isotopes with mass numbers A = 211, 213, 221, 223, 225, 227 and 229. Isotope shifts in the mass range A = 208−232 have also been measured. These studies were carried out using the technique of on-line collinear fast beam laser spectroscopy.
Collinear laser spectroscopy on108g, 108m In using an ion source with bunched beam release
1986
The hyperfine structure and isotope shift of108gIn and108mIn have been investigated by means of collinear fast-beam laser spectroscopy in the resonance line atλ=451 nm. The indium isotopes were prepared at the GSI on-line mass separator following a fusion evaporation reaction. For the first time, a FEBIAD ion source with bunched release of indium was used. Magnetic dipole moments, electric quadrupole moments and isotope shifts were determined. The present results lead us to assign the spinI=2 to the108In (T 1/2=40 min) state. Spins and moments are discussed in the framework of thejj-coupling model.
Magnetic dipole moments near 132Sn: new measurement on 135I by NMR/ON
1998
Abstract On-line low temperature nuclear orientation (OLNO) experiments have been performed on the isotope 135 I using the technique of nuclear magnetic resonance on oriented nuclei (NMR/ON). The magnetic moment of the 7 2 + ground state has been measured to be μ( 7 2 + 135 I ) = 2.940(2) μ N , thereby extending the known data on these states in odd- A I isotopes up to the neutron shell closure at N = 82. Shell-model calculations have been performed for the magnetic moments of 7 2 + states in the N = 82 isotones using free-nucleon and effective g -factors. The effective g -factors are obtained from a perturbation calculation that includes corrections for core polarisation and meson-exchange…
Meson exchange and isobar admixture contributions to elastic electron-deuteron scattering
1974
The deuteron structure functions for elastic electron scattering and the deuteron static properties have been calculated with the inclusion of isobar admixtures to the deuteron wave function and meson exchange currents. At higher momentum transfers the structure functions are increased significantly because of the strong enhancement of the deuteron magnetic dipole form factor. Roughly 15–35% of this enhancement depending on the momentum transfer arise from the meson exchange currents.
Polarizability effects in electronic and muonic atoms
1983
TheS state polarizability shifts are derived from the virtual forward Compton scattering in the unretarded dipole approximation. In the non-relativistic limit ω N /2m≪1, the shift is proportional to the photonuclear sum rule σ−3/2, while in the relativistic limit ω N /2m≫1 it is proportional to a logarithmically weighted σ−2 sum rule. In both cases, the characteristic momentum transfer is (2mω N )1/2. The non-locality from the intermediate lepton propagation removes the divergence typical of the static limit. Explicit formulas for the shifts are given for both the relativistic and non-relativistic limits.
The hadronic light-by-light contribution to the muon's anomalous magnetic moment
2019
In view of the current 3 - 4 $\sigma$ deviation between theoretical and experimental values for the muon's anomalous magnetic moment, we review the ongoing efforts in constraining the hadronic light-by-light contribution to $a_\mu$ by using dispersive techniques combined with a dedicated experimental program to obtain the required hadronic input.
