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…
Observation of the distribution of nuclear magnetization in a molecule
S. G. Wilkins, S. M. Udrescu, M. Athanasakis-Kaklamanakis +33
Rapid progress in the experimental control and interrogation of molecules, combined with developments in precise calculations of their structure, are enabling new opportunities in…
Cr as a Doorway to the N = 40 Island of Inversion
L. Lalanne, M. Athanasakis-Kaklamanakis, D. D. Dao +24
This paper reports on the measurement of the ground-state spin and nuclear magnetic dipole moment of Cr. The radioactive ion beam was produced at the CERN-ISOLDE facility an…
Laser spectroscopy and CP-violation sensitivity of actinium monofluoride
M. Athanasakis-Kaklamanakis, M. Au, A. Kyuberis +39
The apparent invariance of the strong nuclear force under combined charge conjugation and parity (CP) remains an open question in modern physics. Precision experiments with heavy a…
The 76Cu conundrum remains unsolved
B. Olaizola, A. Illana, J. Benito +80
Near the doubly-magic nucleus \nuc{Ni}{78} (, ), there has been a decades-long debate on the existence of a long-lived isomer in \nuc{Cu}{76}. A recent mass measurement…
Refining the nuclear mass surface with the mass of Sn
L. Nies, D. Atanasov, M. Athanasakis-Kaklamanakis +17
Mass measurements with the ISOLTRAP mass spectrometer at CERN-ISOLDE improve mass uncertainties of neutron-deficient tin isotopes towards doubly-magic Sn. The mass uncertai…
