Heavy $N=Z$ nuclei and nuclei in their vicinity are highly interesting to study; they can provide important insights about nuclear structure, symmetries and interactions and have a high impact in modelling nuclear astrophysics processes ($rp$-process, $\nu p$-process). A few examples of the striking phenomena emerging in these nuclei are the formation of high-spin isomeric states, the direct...

200. Isobaric ion separation at CRIS

Tobias Christen (Ku Leuven)

2025-10-22, 11:00 a.m.

Oral contributed talk

Precision laser spectroscopy is a powerful technique for investigating nuclear properties such as nuclear spins, electromagnetic moments, and changes in the mean-square radii in a way that is independent of a nuclear model [1]. Measurements using this technique are essential for testing and advancing nuclear theories. The Collinear Resonance Ionization Spectroscopy (CRIS) setup located at CERN...

48. Progress on the new Universal High-Density Gas Stopping Cell (UniCell) for Supherheavy Element Chemistry Studies

Ion guide, gas catcher, and beam manipulation techniques

Oral contributed talk

Experimental investigations targeting chemical properties of superheavy elements (SHE) have reached element 115 (Mc) [1]. Chemistry experiments of the heaviest elements are carried out by thermalizing their energetic recoils produced in fusion-evaporation reactions within a gas-filled volume and transporting these solely by gas-flow to a detection setup. The transport process typically...

127. The RAdium-Fluride Ion Catcher Instrument - A path towards offline eEDM experiments with RaF

Ion guide, gas catcher, and beam manipulation techniques

Oral contributed talk

Molecules have proven to be powerful laboratories to explore unknown aspects of the fundamental forces of nature and to search for physics beyond the standard model. By choosing molecules containing radioactive isotopes with different spins and deformation one can explore aspects of the fundamental forces even further and reach unparalleled enhancement of symmetry-violating properties. Among...
