Nuclear spins of76Rb and119Cs byβ radiation detected optical pumping

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik A Atoms and Nuclei

Abstract

An optical pumping apparatus has been attached to the reconstructed ISOLDE on-line mass separator at CERN in order to obtain nuclear data of isotopes far fromβ stability. As first results the spins of76Rb (T 1/2=36.8 s) and119Cs (T 1/2=37.7 s) have been determined byβ radiation detected optical pumping (β-RADOP) to beI=1 andI=9/2 respectively.
