The nuclear magnetic moment of by atomic beam laser spectroscopy

Abstract

The magnetic dipole moment has been deduced for the nuclear ground state of the self-conjugate nucleus from the hyperfine splitting of the atomic ground state. The hyperfine structure of the 308.2 nm transition was measured by laser resonance fluorescence of an atomic beam. The tunable ultraviolet light was generated by frequency doubling using a lithium iodate crystal within the cavity of a dye laser. The result of fits well with the systematics of neighbouring -subshell nuclei and its small difference from the pure Schmidt value is satisfactorily described by a shell-model calculation in the full 2s1d shell.
