Laser Spectroscopy of Thulium Isotopes Near the N=82 Shell Closure: Nuclear Moment and Charge Radius of 152mTm

24 more authors

Abstract

We report on resonance ionization laser spectroscopy measurements performed on both neutron-deficient and neutron-rich thulium (Tm, Z=69) isotopes. Isotope shifts were determined for three atomic ground-state transitions at wavelengths of 389.8 nm, 388.4 nm, and 388.8 nm in the isotopes 152mTm, 153Tm, 154mTm, and 169Tm. In addition, for the 389.8 nm transition, measurements were extended to the isotope 170Tm, and the hyperfine structure was partially resolved for all five isotopes. For this transition, the isotope shift could be determined for one more isotope, 154mTm. From the extracted hyperfine coupling constants, the nuclear magnetic dipole moment for 152mTm was determined for the first time, resulting in μ(152mTm) = 5.8(3) μN. Furthermore, the mean-square nuclear charge radius δ⟨ r2⟩152m,169 = −1.87(17) fm2 for 152mTm was extracted from the measured isotope shifts.
