/ Ferrer, R (KU Leuven, Dept. Phys. Astron.) ; Barzakh, A (St. Petersburg, INP) ; Bastin, B (GANIL) ; Beerwerth, R (Helmholtz Inst., Jena ; Jena U., TPI) ; Block, M (Darmstadt, GSI ; Helmholtz Inst., Mainz ; Mainz U., Inst.

Resonant laser ionization and spectroscopy are widely used techniques at radioactive ion
beam facilities to produce pure beams of exotic nuclei and measure the shape, size, spin and
electromagnetic multipole moments of these nuclei. However, in such measurements it is
difficult to combine a high efficiency with a high spectral resolution. [...]

Developments towards in-gas-jet laser spectroscopy studies of actinium isotopes at LISOL
/ Raeder, S (KU Leuven, Dept. Phys. Astron.) ; Bastin, B (GANIL) ; Block, M (Helmholtz-Institut Mainz) ; Creemers, P (KU Leuven, Dept. Phys. Astron.) ; Delahaye, P (GANIL) ; Ferrer, R (KU Leuven, Dept. Phys. Astron.) ; Fléchard, X (Caen U.) ; Franchoo, S (Orsay, IPN) ; Ghys, L (KU Leuven, Dept. Phys. Astron.) ; Gaffney, L P (KU Leuven, Dept. Phys. Astron.) et al.
To study exotic nuclides at the borders of stability with laser ionization and spectroscopy techniques, highest efficiencies in combination with a high spectral resolution are required. These usually opposing requirements are reconciled by applying the in-gas-laser ionization and spectroscopy (IGLIS) technique in the supersonic gas jet produced by a de Laval nozzle installed at the exit of the stopping gas cell.

High-resolution collinear laser spectroscopy has been performed on singly charged ions of $^{234,235,238}$U at the IGISOL facility of the Accelerator Laboratory, University of Jyväskylä, in Finland. Ten ionic transitions from the $^{4}\hbox {I}_{9/2}$ and $^{6}\hbox {L}_{11/2}$ ground and first excited states were measured in the 300 nm wavelength range, improving the precision of the hyperfine parameters of the lower states in addition to providing newly measured values for the upper levels.

The in-gas laser ionization and spectroscopy (IGLIS) technique was applied on the Ac212–215 isotopes, produced at the Leuven Isotope Separator On-Line (LISOL) facility by using the in-gas-cell and the in-gas-jet methods. The first application under on-line conditions of the in-gas-jet laser spectroscopy method showed a superior performance in terms of selectivity, spectral resolution, and efficiency in comparison with the in-gas-cell method.

High-precision hyperfine structure measurements were performed on stable, singly-charged $^{59}$Co ions at the IGISOL facility in Jyväskylä, Finland using the collinear laser spectroscopy technique. A newly installed light collection setup enabled the study of transitions in the 230 nm wavelength range from low-lying states below 6000 cm$^{-1}$. [...]

The structure of low-spin states originating from shape-coexisting configurations in $^{68}_{40}$Ni$_{28}$ was directly probed via the two-neutron transfer reaction $^{66}$Ni$(t,p)^{68}$Ni in inverse kinematics using a radioactive ion beam on a radioactive target. The direct feeding to the first excited 0$^+$ state was measured for center-of-mass angles 4°–16° and amounts to an integral of 4.2(16)% relative to the ground state. [...]

The changes in mean-squared charge radii of neutron-deficient gold nuclei have been determined using the in-source, resonance-ionization laser spectroscopy technique, at the ISOLDE facility (CERN). From these new data, nuclear deformations are inferred, revealing a competition between deformed and spherical configurations. [...]
