Radiative lifetimes of highly excited odd-parity levels of neutral lanthanum

New radiative lifetimes of 24 high-lying odd-parity levels of neutral lanthanum are reported using time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence (TR-LIF) spectroscopy. The investigated levels ranging from 34 213 to 40 910 cm^-1 were excited from the ground or metastable states using one-photon excitation. La atoms are produced by laser ablation on a solid La sample. The lifetimes were evaluated from transient LIF signals detected with a fast detection system. The obtained lifetime results, generally with uncertainties less than  ±7%, are in the range from 15.7 to 121 ns.     

Cooperative and interference effects in the resonance fluorescence of two identical three-level atoms at high photon densities: II. Numerical results

Numerical calculations are presented for the excitation spectrum of two identical three-level atoms interacting with a strong resonant laser field. The atoms interact through their dipole-dipole interaction and radiate to each other as well. The spectrum of the symmetric and antisymmetric modes due to the radiative decay from the higher to the lower excited state of the interacting atoms is considered without and with taking into account the effects of the strong pumping process. In the absence of strong pumping, the dipole-dipole interaction in the spectrum of the symmetric modes gives rise to an asymmetric doublet whose ratio of intensities is 2:1, while the spectrum of the antisymmetric modes consists of two peaks one of which represents a stable mode indicating the trapping of a photon between the atoms and a radiative one which has a lifetime one-half that of the isolated atom. In the presence of strong pumping, asymmetries due to the dipole-dipole interaction arise enhancing certain peaks while diminishing the intensity of others and a new pair of sidebands is induced as well. The computed spectra are presented graphically for different values of the Rabi frequencies and the dipole-dipole interaction, respectively.     

Radiative lifetimes of Zr III excited levels

We report on radiative lifetimes of 4d5p excited states of Zr III produced in a laser produced plasma. The ions were populated either in the ground state or in metastable states, and the number of ions is strongly dependent on the application of an external magnetic field, which is shown to be very important when using the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence technique for lifetime measurements in highly charged ions. The experimental lifetime results fall in the region 1–2 ns with statistical uncertainties less than 7%. The experimental values were compared with multi-configuration Hartree-Fock calculations showing an agreement within 12–20%. The experimental values are systematically higher than the theoretical ones.     

Temperature measurement in fuel-rich non-sooting low-pressure hydrocarbon flames

Several temperature measurement techniques were compared for the investigation of fuel-rich, premixed, flat, low-pressure flames of propene, acetylene, and cyclopentene with maximum temperatures around 2400 K. Vibrational Stokes/anti-Stokes Raman measurements with a KrF excimer laser using CO, H₂, and H₂O as temperature indicators were examined at 50 and 200 mbar for different flame stoichiometries. Also, laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) of OH in the A-X band was used, and complementary lifetime measurements were performed to account for a variation of fluorescence quantum yield with rotational quantum number. LIF using seeded NO (0.2-1.0%) was applied both in point-wise and 1D temperature measurement in spite of the anticipated interaction of NO with the fuel-rich flame chemistry. Furthermore, thermocouple measurements were performed in the preheat zone. These techniques were compared with respect to accuracy and the potential for routine applications under fuel-rich low-pressure conditions.     

Attenuation corrections for in-cylinder NO LIF measurements in a heavy-duty Diesel engine

Quantification of the nitric oxide (NO) concentration inside the cylinder of a Diesel engine by means of laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) measurements requires, amongst others, knowledge of the attenuation of the ultraviolet radiation involved. We present a number of laser diagnostic techniques to assess this attenuation, enabling a correction for laser intensity and detection efficiency of the raw NO LIF data. Methods discussed include overall laser beam transmission, bidirectional laser scattering (bidirectional LIF), spectrally resolved fluorescence imaging, and Raman scattering by N₂. A combination of techniques is necessary to obtain the complete attenuation of laser beam and NO fluorescence. The overall laser beam transmission measurements and bidirectional LIF measurements (the latter yielding spatially resolved transmission) provide evidence of a non-uniform attenuation distribution, with predominant attenuation within or near the piston bowl. Fluorescence imaging of multiple vibrational bands through a spectrograph is shown to be a powerful method for obtaining spatially resolved data on the transmission losses of fluorescence. Special attention is paid to the role of CO₂ and O₂ as UV light absorbers, and the consequences to different excitation-detection schemes for NO. PACS 82.33.Vx; 42.62.Fi; 33.20.t

Spectroscopy and dynamics of neutral atoms in superfluid helium

Optical spectra and radiative lifetimes of neutral atoms in superfluid helium have been studied. The absorption and emission spectra of Ag, Mg, Yb, Al, Ga, and In were found to exhibit shifts and broadening typical of atoms residing in microscopic He bubbles, showing that this type of trapping is fairly general. The radiative lifetimes measured for these atoms are close to the free space values, indicating that the surrounding bubble hardly perturbs the electronic orbitals during photo emission. One exception observed in Sr is discussed, where competing autoionization substantially decreases the lifetime of a high excited triplet state. A transient non-bubble state with sharp, free atom like spectra is seen during the first few s after dispersion for many atomic species. The dynamics of this state are unusual, with for example very short radiative lifetimes measured for light alkali atoms.

Measurement of a large chemical reaction rate between ultracold closed-shell 40Ca atoms and open-shell 174Yb+ ions held in a hybrid atom-ion trap

Ultracold 174Yb+ ions and 40Ca atoms are confined in a hybrid trap. The charge exchange chemical reaction rate constant between these two species is measured and found to be 4 orders of magnitude larger than recent measurements in other heteronuclear systems. The structure of the CaYb+ molecule is determined and used in a calculation that explains the fast chemical reaction as a consequence of strong radiative charge transfer. A possible explanation is offered for the apparent contradiction between typical theoretical predictions and measurements of the radiative association process in this and other recent experiments.
