Abstract: | Clouds of stable and unstable Eu+ isotopes have been confined in a Paul trap, each containing about 105 particles. In a microwave-optical double resonance experiment several hyperfine separations in the 4f7 6s 7S3 exited level have been measured with the experimental uncertainties ranging between 10-8 and 3×10-6. These experiments have confirmed that also in the case of an excited level with a large number of hyperfine or Zeeman sublevels the microwave-optical double resonance technique in a Paul trap can be useful for precise hyperfine structure investigation. The hyperfine coupling constants A and B have been determined for the isotopes 153Eu+, 151Eu+, 150Eu+ and 148Eu+. The results complement earlier measurements on the ground state of Eu+ and give additional information on the hyperfine anomaly in the Eu isotopic chain. |
