Precision measurement of the branching ratio in the 6P3/2 decay of BaII with a single trapped ion

N. Kurz, M. R. Dietrich, Gang Shu +4

We present a measurement of the branching ratios from the 6P3/2 state of BaII into all dipoleallowed decay channels (6S1/2, 5D3/2 and 5D5/2). Measurements were performed on single…
