PREcision Studies with Optically pumped Beams of Exotic Nuclei
Neutrons are fascinating particles and are important for nuclear structure, tests of the standard model of particle physics, or properties of neutron stars. Unfortunately, they are electrically neutral, so learning about their distribution in nuclei, especially far from stability, is difficult. However, they possess a magnetic moment, which contributes to –and sometimes dominates– the distribution of nuclear magnetization. This project aims to address the challenging question of the distribution of magnetisation and neutrons in unstable nuclei. I will use a novel, high-accuracy experimental approach, combining radiation-detected Nuclear Magnetic Resonance with rf-laser double spectroscopy…
