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…

Pinning down electron correlations in RaF via spectroscopy of excited states and high-accuracy relativistic quantum chemistry
M. Athanasakis-Kaklamanakis, S. G. Wilkins, L. V. Skripnikov +53
We report the spectroscopy of the 14 lowest excited electronic states in the radioactive molecule radium monofluoride (RaF). The observed excitation energies are compared with full…

Radiative lifetime of the A 2Î 1/2 state in RaF with relevance to laser cooling
M. Athanasakis-Kaklamanakis, S. G. Wilkins, P. Lassègues +38
The radiative lifetime of the (v=0) state in radium monofluoride (RaF) is measured to be 35(1) ns. The lifetime of this state and the related decay rate $Î= 2.86…
