Laser Mössbauer spectroscopy of ^{229}Th
Takahiro Hiraki, Takahiko Masuda, Sayuri Takatori +23
Mössbauer spectroscopy is widely used in biochemistry, geology, and solid-state physics to obtain structural information on materials. Here, we extend this technique into the optic…
Controlling Th isomeric state population in a VUV transparent crystal
Takahiro Hiraki, Koichi Okai, Michael Bartokos +27
The radioisotope Th-229 is renowned for its extraordinarily low-energy, long-lived nuclear first-excited state. This isomeric state can be excited by VUV lasers and the transition…
A new method of creating high intensity neutron source
T. Masuda, A. Yoshimi, M. Yoshimura
We propose a new scheme of producing intense neutron beam whose yields exceed those of existing facilities by many orders of magnitude. This scheme uses the recently proposed photo…
