The extraction of 229Th3+ from a buffer-gas stopping cell
Lars von der Wense, Benedict Seiferle, Mustapha Laatiaoui +1
In the whole landscape of atomic nuclei, Th is currently the only known nucleus which could allow for the development of a nuclear-based frequency standard, as it possesses…
Determination of the extraction efficiency for U source -recoil ions from the MLL buffer-gas stopping cell
Lars von der Wense, Benedict Seiferle, Mustapha Laatiaoui +1
Following the decay of U, Th recoil ions are shown to be extracted in a significant amount from the MLL buffer-gas stopping cell. The produced recoil ions and s…
A VUV detection system for the direct photonic identification of the first excited isomeric state of Th
Benedict Seiferle, Lars von der Wense, Mustapha Laatiaoui +1
With an expected energy of 7.6(5) eV, Th possesses the lowest excited nuclear state in the landscape of all presently known nuclei. The energy corresponds to a wavelength o…
