Measuring the Th-229 nuclear isomer transition with U-233 doped crystals
Simon Stellmer, Matthias Schreitl, Georgy Kazakov +2
We propose a simple approach to measure the energy of the few-eV isomeric state in Th-229. To this end, U-229 nuclei are doped into VUV-transparent crystals, where they undergo alp…

Radioluminescence and photoluminescence of Th:CaF crystals
Simon Stellmer, Matthias Schreitl, Thorsten Schumm
We study thorium-doped CaF crystals as a possible platform for optical spectroscopy of the Th-229 nuclear isomer transition. We anticipate two major sources of background signa…
