A thorium-229 optical nuclear clock with feedback loop
L. Toscani De Col, T. Riebner, I. Morawetz +25
The laser-accessible nuclear transition in the thorium-229 isotope has been identified as a promising candidate for the realization of an optical nuclear clock. Such a nuclear cloc…
metastable state of for a hyperfine-free nuclear clock
S. Sagar Maurya, V. Lal, J. Tiedau +2
We present measurements on a metastable state in with the electronic configuration . This is motivated by the prospect o…
Continuous-wave laser absorption spectroscopy of the Thorium-229 nucleus
I. Morawetz, T. Riebner, L. Toscani De Col +17
A low-energy nuclear transition in the isotope thorium-229 has been excited in thorium-doped crystals with laser light. This opens the perspective towards a highly stable and robus…
Continuous-wave laser source at the 148 nm nuclear transition of Th-229
Vishal Lal, Maksim V. Okhapkin, Johannes Tiedau +3
A continuous-wave laser source at 148.4 nm based on second-harmonic generation in randomly quasi-phase matched strontium tetraborate, SrB4O7, is demonstrated. It provides (1.3-0.6+…
Laser spectroscopy on the hyperfine structure and isotope shift of sympathetically cooled Th ions
G. Zitzer, J. Tiedau, Ch. E. Düllmann +2
The hyperfine structure of Th ions in the nuclear ground state is investigated via laser spectroscopy of trapped Th ions that are sympathetically cooled by la…
Laser-Induced Quenching of the Th-229 Nuclear Clock Isomer in Calcium Fluoride
F. Schaden, T. Riebner, I. Morawetz +11
The 10-minute radiative lifetime of the first excited Th nuclear state in ionic crystals provides narrow spectroscopic linewidths, enabling the realization of a soli…
Searching for dark matter with the Th-229 nuclear lineshape from laser spectroscopy
Elina Fuchs, Fiona Kirk, Eric Madge +5
The recent laser excitation of the low-lying Th-229 isomer transition is starting a revolution in ultralight dark matter searches. The enhanced sensitivity of this transition to th…
Sympathetic cooling of trapped Th3+ alpha-recoil ions for laser spectroscopy
G. Zitzer, J. Tiedau, M. V. Okhapkin +5
Sympathetic cooling of Th ions is demonstrated in an experiment where Th and Th are extracted from uranium recoil ion sources and are confined in a linear Pa…
