Cover Story: Laser spectroscopy is a powerful tool to reveal the fundamental atomic and nuclear properties of exotic nuclides, such as the heaviest actinides. Most of these nuclides need to be produced in fusion–evaporation reactions and must be studied immediately after their production and separation from the primary accelerator beam due to their short half-lives and low production rates. The radiation-detected resonance ionization spectroscopy (RADRIS) method enables highly sensitive laser spectroscopy studies on nuclides available with rates of only a few atoms per second or less. To expand the reach to even rarer isotopes and to facilitate the search for atomic levels in the heaviest actinide element, lawrencium (Z=103), the sensitivity and versatility of the RADRIS technique was advanced. View this paper

The spin polarization of photoelectrons in two-color XUV + optical multiphoton ionization is theoretically considered using strong field approximation. We assume that both the XUV and the optical radiation are circularly polarized. It is shown that t...

The Wigner-Kirkwood expansion of the quantum correction to the classical free energy is generally said to be in powers of ℏ2 and only its first few terms are presented. In this work, we use the Bloch differential equation to obtain a general de...
