A cryogenic Paul trap for probing the nuclear isomeric excited state Th
Daniel Moritz, Kevin Scharl, Markus Wiesinger +16
While laser excitation of the nuclear isomeric transition in Th has been recently achieved for thorium atoms embedded in large-bandgap crystals, laser excitation and charac…
Th Nuclear Spectroscopy in an Opaque Material: Laser-Based Conversion Electron Mössbauer Spectroscopy of ThO
Ricky Elwell, James E. S. Terhune, Christian Schneider +11
Here, we report the first demonstration of laser-induced conversion electron Mössbauer spectroscopy of the Th nuclear isomeric state, which provides the ability to probe th…
The Th isomer: prospects for a nuclear optical clock
Lars von der Wense, Benedict Seiferle
The proposal for the development of a nuclear optical clock has triggered a multitude of experimental and theoretical studies. In particular the prediction of an unprecedented syst…
Electronic bridge excitation in highly charged Th-229 ions
Pavlo V. Bilous, Hendrik Bekker, Julian Berengut +6
The excitation of the 8 eV Th isomer through the electronic bridge mechanism in highly charged ions is investigated theoretically. By exploiting the rich level scheme of o…
