Hyperfine anomalies in Fr: boundaries of the spherical single particle model

J. Zhang, M. Tandecki. R. Collister, S. Aubin +6

We have measured the hyperfine splitting of the state at the 100 ppm level in Fr isotopes (Fr) near the closed neutron shell ( = 126…

Offline trapping of Fr in a magneto-optical trap from implantation of an Ac ion beam

M. Tandecki, J. Zhang, S. Aubin +10

We demonstrate a new technique to prepare an offline source of francium for trapping in a magneto-optical trap. Implanting a radioactive beam of Ac, da…

Commissioning of the Francium Trapping Facility at TRIUMF

M. Tandecki, J. Zhang, R. Collister +6

We report on the successful commissioning of the Francium Trapping Facility at TRIUMF. Large laser-cooled samples of francium are produced from a francium ion beam delivered by the…

Hyperfine Field and Hyperfine Anomalies of Copper Impurities in Iron

V. V. Golovko, F. Wauters, S. Cottenier +9

A new value for the hyperfine magnetic field of copper impurities in iron is obtained by combining resonance frequencies from experiments involving β-NMR on oriented nuclei on 59-C…

The half-life of Fr in Si and Au at 4K and at mK temperatures

F. Wauters, B. Verstichel, M. Breitenfeldt +10

The half-life of the decaying nucleus Fr was determined in different environments, i.e. embedded in Si at 4 K, and embedded in Au at 4 K and about 20 mK. No differences…

First detection and energy measurement of recoil ions following beta decay in a Penning trap with the WITCH experiment

M. Beck, S. Coeck, V. Yu. Kozlov +13

The WITCH experiment (Weak Interaction Trap for CHarged particles) will search for exotic interactions by investigating the beta-neutrino angular correlation via the measurement of…
