Laser-induced electronic bridge for characterization of the ${}^{229\mathrm{m}}\mathrm{Th}\to {}^{229\mathrm{g}}\mathrm{Th}$ nuclear transition with a tunable optical laser

An alternative method to determine the excitation energy of the ${}^{229\mathrm{m}}\mathrm{Th}$ isomer via the laser-induced electronic bridge is investigated theoretically. In the presence…
