Electronic bridge excitation in highly charged Th-229 ions
Pavlo V. Bilous, Hendrik Bekker, Julian Berengut +6
The excitation of the 8 eV Th isomer through the electronic bridge mechanism in highly charged ions is investigated theoretically. By exploiting the rich level scheme of o…

The theory of direct laser excitation of nuclear transitions
Lars von der Wense, Pavlo V. Bilous, Benedict Seiferle +5
A comprehensive theoretical study of direct laser excitation of a nuclear state based on the density matrix formalism is presented. The nuclear clock isomer Th is d…

Energy of the Th nuclear clock transition
Benedict Seiferle, Lars von der Wense, Pavlo V. Bilous +8
The first nuclear excited state of Th offers the unique opportunity for laser-based optical control of a nucleus. Its exceptional properties allow for the development of a…
