X-ray-induced quenching of the Th clock isomer in CaF
Ming Guan, Michael Bartokos, Kjeld Beeks +27
Thorium-229 has the lowest nuclear-excited state (an isomer state) at approximately 8.356 eV, making it excitable with tabletop vacuum-ultraviolet lasers. Despite the recent succes…

An Embedding Cluster Approach for Accurate Electronic Structure Calculations of (229)Th:CaF2
Kamil Nalikowski, Valera Veryazov, Kjeld Beeks +2
Building on recent advances of the embedded cluster approach combined with multiconfigurational theory, this work investigates the electronic states in thorium-doped CaF2 crystals.…
