NUCLEAR SPECTROSCOPY USING LASERS AT OAK-RIDGE-NATIONAL-LABORATORY - EXPERIMENTS WITH STABLE (PAST) AND RADIOACTIVE (FUTURE) TANDEM BEAMS Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Fast beam collinear laser spectroscopy has yielded information on nuclear structure on the long chain of neutron deficient Tl isotopes (186 A 205) using heavy ion fusion evaporation reactions to produce Tl-ion beams which for the most neutron deficient isotope were only about 104/s. The new radioactive heavy ion beam facility projected to be completed in 1995 requires even higher sensitivities at the few 10 nuclei/s level. Two examples to realize such ultra-sensitive measurements employing laser techniques are described. They are: field-ionization spectroscopy in a fast beam and stored ion spectroscopy in a novel linear combined trap. 1995.
