Cold Hypersonic Gas Jets for Precision Laser Spectroscopy of Radioactive Molecules

A. Claessens, R. Ferrer, Harshithbabu +10

The sensitivity to possible beyond standard model physics via a study of the nuclear Schiff moment (NSM) has since recently been driving laser spectroscopy of short-lived radioacti…

Exploring - and -decay-induced quenching of the Th nuclear-clock isomer in solid-state hosts

Y. Elskens, M. Athanasakis-Kaklamanakis, S. Arasada Pradeep +52

The radiative decay dynamics of an ensemble of Th nuclei embedded in CaF and MgF is investigated. The isomer is populated through decay of Ac…
