RESUMO

Molecules containing short-lived, radioactive nuclei are uniquely positioned to enable a wide range of scientific discoveries in the areas of fundamental symmetries, astrophysics, nuclear structure, and chemistry. Recent advances in the ability to create, cool, and control complex molecules down to the quantum level, along with recent and upcoming advances in radioactive species production at several facilities around the world, create a compelling opportunity to coordinate and combine these efforts to bring precision measurement and control to molecules containing extreme nuclei. In this manuscript, we review the scientific case for studying radioactive molecules, discuss recent atomic, molecular, nuclear, astrophysical, and chemical advances which provide the foundation for their study, describe the facilities where these species are and will be produced, and provide an outlook for the future of this nascent field.

RESUMO

High-accuracy mass measurements of neutron-deficient Yb isotopes have been performed at TRIUMF using TITAN's multiple-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MR-TOF-MS). For the first time, an MR-TOF-MS was used on line simultaneously as an isobar separator and as a mass spectrometer, extending the measurements to two isotopes further away from stability than otherwise possible. The ground state masses of ^{150,153}Yb and the excitation energy of ^{151}Yb^{m} were measured for the first time. As a result, the persistence of the N=82 shell with almost unmodified shell gap energies is established up to the proton drip line. Furthermore, the puzzling systematics of the h_{11/2}-excited isomeric states of the N=81 isotones are unraveled using state-of-the-art mean field calculations.

RESUMO

We present the concluding result from an Ives-Stilwell-type time dilation experiment using 7Li+ ions confined at a velocity of ß=v/c=0.338 in the storage ring ESR at Darmstadt. A Λ-type three-level system within the hyperfine structure of the 7Li+3S1 →3P2 line is driven by two laser beams aligned parallel and antiparallel relative to the ion beam. The lasers' Doppler shifted frequencies required for resonance are measured with an accuracy of <4×10(-9) using optical-optical double resonance spectroscopy. This allows us to verify the special relativity relation between the time dilation factor γ and the velocity ß, γ√1-ß2=1 to within ±2.3×10(-9) at this velocity. The result, which is singled out by a high boost velocity ß, is also interpreted within Lorentz invariance violating test theories.

RESUMO

A new determination of the decay rate of the negative ion of positronium (Ps-), using a beam-foil method and a stripping-based detection technique, is reported. The measured result of gamma = 2.089(15) ns(-1) is a factor of 6 more precise than the previous experimental value of gamma = 2.09(9) ns(-1), and is in excellent agreement with the theoretical value of gamma = 2.086(6) ns(-1).

RESUMO

Electron-ion recombination observed in storage ring experiments shows a strong enhancement relative to what standard radiative recombination rates predict. We simulate the effect of a transient motional electric field induced by the merging of an electron and an ion beam in the electron cooler which opens an additional pathway for free-bound transitions of electrons. We show that the measured rate contains a significant contribution from radiative stabilization of Rydberg states formed by this transient motional electric field. The absolute excess recombination rates obtained are in good agreement with the experimental data. The scaling of the rate with the ion charge and the magnetic guiding field is analyzed.
