Highly charged ion approach to measure nuclear charge radii of Fr, Ra, and Rn isotopes for precision measurements
Conventional electron scattering and muonic atom spectroscopy techniques are challenging to apply to heavy ions unless the element has at least one stable or extremely long-lived isotope. To overcome this limitation, a recently introduced method for determining nuclear charge radii relies on extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) spectroscopy of the line in highly charged Na-like ions. In this work, we present an experimental approach to measure the nuclear charge radii of isotopes of radioactive elements such as Fr, Ra, and Rn using this method at TRIUMF’s Ion Trap for Atomic and Nuclear Science (TITAN) instrument, located at the ISAC radioactive beam facility. We also explore the potential of using Na-like lines in the soft x-ray region for future measurements.
期刊介绍:
Section A of Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research publishes papers on design, manufacturing and performance of scientific instruments with an emphasis on large scale facilities. This includes the development of particle accelerators, ion sources, beam transport systems and target arrangements as well as the use of secondary phenomena such as synchrotron radiation and free electron lasers. It also includes all types of instrumentation for the detection and spectrometry of radiations from high energy processes and nuclear decays, as well as instrumentation for experiments at nuclear reactors. Specialized electronics for nuclear and other types of spectrometry as well as computerization of measurements and control systems in this area also find their place in the A section.
Theoretical as well as experimental papers are accepted.
