Level-crossing-Untersuchung der Hyperfeinstruktur des 3d 10 4p 2 P 3/2-Terms von Cu63 und Cu65

The level-crossing technic has been used to investigate the hyperfinestructur of the 3d ¹⁰ 4p ² P _3/2-term in Copper I by scattering the resonance line λ=3248 Å on an atomic beam of separated isotop Cu⁶³ respectively Cu⁶⁵ in an external magnetic field. From the level-crossing signals values for the magnetic dipol interaction constantsA and for the electric quadrupol interaction constantsB are deduced to beeA(Cu⁶³)=(194,72±0,15) Mc/secB(Cu⁶³)=?(28,8±0,6) Mc/secA(Cu⁶⁵)=(208,57±0,15) Mc/secB(Cu⁶⁵)=?(25,9±0,6) Mc/sec. With theA-value of the 3d ¹⁰ 4p²P_1/2-term from optical measurements the ratioA(² P _3/2)∶A(² P _1/2)≈0,4 is about twice greater than for an unperturbetalkali-like²P-term. From the width of the level-crossing signals a mean lifetime of the 3d¹⁰ 4p²P_3/2-term τ=(7,0±0,2) · 10^?9 sec is deduced.     

Measurement of the Lamb shift 42S1/2-42P1/2 of the helium ion

Helium ions were produced in then=4 states by electron collisions with ground state atoms, resulting in simultaneous ionization and excitation. Dipole transitions between the Zeeman levels of the states 4² S _1/2 and 4² P _1/2 were induced by a microwave electric field. The intensity of the emitted Fowlerα line 4686 Å, corresponding to transitions from then=4 to then=3 states was then reduced by about 3%. From the measurements, a value of the Lamb shiftδ=1751±25 MHz was obtained, compared with the theoretical valueδ=1768.23±0.55 MHz, and the results ofLea, Leventhal andLamb ofδ=1765±20 MHz.     

Measurement of the hyperfine structure splitting for the 4 and 52 P 1/2 states of sodium using radio-frequency spectroscopy

The hyperfine-structure splitting for the 4 and 5² P ^1/2 states of sodium was measured using step-wise laser excitation combined with rf-resonance techniques. The magnetic dipole interaction constants were found to be a(4² P _1/2)=30.4(5) MHz and a(5₂ P _1/2) =13.3(2) MHz. The results are compared with a theoretical calculation, taking polarization effects into account.

The contributions of spin polarization, valence correlations, and relativistic effects to the magnetic dipole constant of the hyperfine structure of the ⁶ S _5/2 (3d ⁵4s ²) term in the atomic spectrum of manganese are calculated and analyzed by the configuration interaction method and in the framework of the perturbation theory.     

Precise measurement of hyperfine structure in the 52P1/2 state of Rb

We have measured hyperfine structure in the 5 ²P_1/2 state of Rb using a frequency-stabilized diode laser, which is locked to one hyperfine transition, and an acousto-optic modulator, whose frequency is locked to the interval of interest. We check for optical-pumping errors by repeating the measurement at different values of pump power in the saturated-absorption spectrometer. We obtain precise values of the hyperfine constant: A=120.645(5) MHz for ⁸⁵Rb and A=406.119(7) MHz for ⁸⁷Rb. The values resolve a large discrepancy between two earlier high-accuracy measurements on this state.     

On the degeneracy of the 2H and 2P states from the atomic configuration d3 in the non-relativistic Hartree-Fock approximation

A new relation between the wave functions of the atomic states ²H and ²P arising from the configuration d³ and the wave functions of two molecular states arising from the configuration h³ in icosahedral symmetry molecules is presented. This relation gives an insight into the unknown origin of the non-relativistic Hartree-Fock degeneracy of the atomic states ²H and ²P.     

Polarizabilities of rubidium (9-10)S 1/2 and 8D 3/2, 5/2 states

Polarizabilities of several rubidium states were determined by measuring stark shifts of transitions using an electro-optically modulated laser beam to excite an atomic beam. The voltage required for atoms excited by the laser beam in an electric field to be simultaneously in resonance as atoms excited by a frequency sideband of the laser in a field free region was measured. The scalar α and tensor α ₂ polarizabilities were found to be: α (9 S _1/2 ) = 103.77±0.09, α (10 S _1/2 ) = 272.54±0.16, α (8 D _3/2 ) = 230.68±0.25 and α ₂ (8 D _3/2 ) = 26.55±0.10, α (8 D _5/2 ) = 222.68±0.14 and α ₂ (8 D _5/2 ) = 51.91±0.10 MHz/(kV/cm)². The results are 100 times more accurate than previous measurements and are within 1% of those found theoretically using a Coulomb approximation calculation.

A many-body calculation of the hyperfine interaction in the lowest2 S and2 P states of li-like systems

A non-relativistic perturbation method of Brueckner-Goldstone type is used to calculate the hyperfine interactions in the lowest² S and² P states of the Li-like systems, Li, Be⁺, B²⁺, C³⁺, N⁴⁺, O⁵⁺ and F⁶⁺. The effect of the polarization of the closed shell is treated to all orders of perturbation, while the correlation effect is calculated in the lowest order, i.e. in the third order of the perturbation expansion. Experimental data are at present available only for Li, Be⁺ and F⁶⁺, and the agreement with the calculated values is in these cases very good, usually within the experimental uncertainties. This implies that the predictions made in the remaining cases should be quite reliable, which may simplify the experimental determination of these quantities. Theoretical values are also given for the quadrupole interaction, which can be used to determine the nuclear quadrupole moments, when accurate experimental information becomes available.

Laser-rf double-resonance hyperfine structure measurements of the metastable 3d 4s 1 D 2 state of43Ca

The hyperfine structure of the (3(d 4s)¹ D ₂metastable state of⁴³Ca has been measured using theABMR-LIRF method (atomic beam magnetic resonance, detected by laser induced resonance fluorescence). The measurements yielded for the magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole constantsA=?17.650(2) MHz andB=?4.642(12) MHz, respectively. From the measuredB factor the spectroscopic electric quadrupole moment (uncorrected for shielding effects) has been calculated to beQ(⁴³Ca)=?0.062(12) barn. In addition, isotope shifts in the lines (3d 4s)¹ D ₂(3d 4p)¹ F ₃ ⁰ and (3d 4s)¹ D ₂(4s 5p)¹ p ₁ ⁰ for the stable calcium isotopes have been obtained by high resolution laser spectroscopy.     

Hyperfine structure,g j factors and lifetimes of excited2 P 1/2 states of Rb

The hyperfine structure of the 6² P _1/2 and 7² P _1/2 state of⁸⁵Rb and⁸⁷Rb and of the 6² P _3/2 state of⁸⁷Rb has been investigated with optical double resonance at intermediate magnetic fields. The magnetic interaction constants,g _j factors and lifetimes are: $$\begin{gathered} 6^2 P_{1/2} state: A\left( {^{85} Rb} \right) = 39.11\left( 3 \right) MHz,A\left( {^{87} Rb} \right) = 132.56 \left( 3 \right)MHz, \hfill \\ g_j = 0.6659\left( 3 \right), \tau = 1.14\left( {13} \right) \cdot 10^{ - 7} \sec , \hfill \\ 7^2 P_{1/2} state: A\left( {^{85} Rb} \right) = 17.68\left( 8 \right)MHz,A\left( {^{87} Rb} \right) = 59.92\left( 9 \right)MHz, \hfill \\ g_j = 0.6655\left( 5 \right), \hfill \\ 6^2 P_{3/2} state: g_j = 1.3337\left( {10} \right), \tau = 1.12\left( 8 \right) \cdot 10^{ - 7} \sec for ^{87} Rb. \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ From the hfs coupling constants of then ² P multiplets a 11.5% core polarization contribution to the magnetic hfs of then ² P _3/2 states is obtained, which is found to be independent from the main quantum numbern. The expectation values <r ^?3> _j for thenp valence electrons corrected for core polarization are compared with those derived from the² P fine structure separation. Good agreement is achieved for allnp levels with the choice ofZ _i =Z?3=34 for the effective nuclear charge number. The nuclear quadrupole moments of⁸⁵Rb and⁸⁷Rb are rederived on the basis of this more improved treatment for thep-electron-nucleus interaction yielding $$\begin{gathered} Q_N \left( {^{85} Rb} \right) = + 0.274\left( 2 \right) \cdot 10^{ - 24} cm^2 \hfill \\ Q_N \left( {^{85} Rb} \right) = + 0.132\left( 1 \right) \cdot 10^{ - 24} cm^2 \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ where the error does not include the remaining theoretical uncertainty of about 10%.

The beam—gas-laser two-step excitation technique of a fast ion beam is used for precision measurements of atomic life-times. By observing the decay of the purely laser induced fluorescence radiation, the lifetimes of eight fine-structure levels 2p₂ to 2p₉ in the NeI 2p⁵3p configuration were measured with total standard deviations of 0.2 to 0.5%.     

Analysis of the isotope shifts and hyperfine structure in the 3 988 Å (6s6p 1 P 1↔6s 2 1 S 0) YbI line

High-resolution laser spectroscopy using a pulsed dye-laser acting on a collimated atomic beam has been used to determine the isotope shifts in the 3 988 Å YbI line. The following results have been obtained:Δσ(176, 174)=?509(4)MHz,Δσ (174, 173)=?291(10) MHz,Δσ(174, 172)=?530(4) MHz,Δσ(172, 171)=?414(5) MHz andΔσ(172, 170)= ?665(10) MHz. The sign of the magnetic dipole interaction constant in the¹ P ₁ state for¹⁷¹Yb is found to be negative,a(¹ P ₁, 171)=?213.4(3.0) MHz. The electric quadrupole interaction constant for¹⁷³Yb in the¹ P ₁ state is found to beb(¹ P ₁, 173)=605(20) MHz.     

2 S 1/2-states of Pb3+-ions: Correlations betweeng-values and hyperfine splitting constantsA in the EPR-spectra

The EPR-spectra of the² S _1/2-state of Pb³⁺-ions in different host lattices are characterized by a pronounced hyperfine splitting constantA, a smallg-shift from the free spin valueg _e and an appreciable amount of superhyperfine interaction. The unpaired 6s-electron of the Pb³⁺-ion is predominantly found in molecular orbitals built from the central 6s-function and orbitals of the sorrounding ligand ions. This assumption leads to correct estimates of theg-shift (Watanabe theory) and the reduction ofA due to covalent bonding effects. Theg- andA-values are shown to be correlated.
