The SHIPTRAP project: A capture and storage facility at GSI for heavy radionuclides from SHIP

SHIPTRAP is an ion trap facility which is being set up to deliver very clean and cool beams of singly-charged recoil ions produced at the SHIP velocity filter at GSI Darmstadt. SHIPTRAP consists of a gas cell for stopping and thermalizing high-energy recoil ions from SHIP, a rf ion guide for extraction of the ions from the gas cell, a linear rf trap for accumulation and bunching of the ions, and a Penning trap for isobaric purification. The physics programme of the SHIPTRAP facility comprises mass spectrometry, nuclear spectroscopy, laser spectroscopy and chemistry of transeinsteinium elements.

Resonance ionization spectroscopy of fermium (Z=100)☆☆☆

Laser spectroscopy has been applied for the first time to measure resonant transition frequencies of fermium (Zs 100). A number of 2.7=10 atoms was electrodeposited on a Ta filament and covered with a 1 mm Ti layer. Fm 10

Isotope shift measurement at 244fAm

AbstractOptical isotope shift measurements have been performed at the 244fAm fission isomers (T1/2=1 ms) with low target production rates of 10/s employing resonance ionization spectroscopy in a buffer gas cell. The isotope shift ratio IS244f,241/IS243,241 = 42.0(9) has been measured at the 500.02 nm transition. A change in the nuclear mean charge radius
