We report precision measurements of the $^{20}\mathrm{Ne}$--$^{22}\mathrm{Ne}$ isotope shift for several transitions, as well as state-of-the-art, ab initio field-shift calculations. Our results are combined with historical measurements in a global fit to obtain the isotope shifts of all 50 low-lying neon levels with high precision. These level shifts show a wealth of electronic, nuclear, and relativistic phenomena. Relying on the analogy between mass shift and fine-structure operators, we…

Imaging Recoil Ions from Optical Collisions between Ultracold, Metastable Neon Isotopes.

An experimental scheme that combines the well-established method of velocity-map imaging with a cold trapped metastable neon target is presented, enabling opportunities for precision measurements in nuclear decays of cold, trapped, short-lived radioactive isotopes.

Isotope Shifts in Atomic Spectra

Atomic and nuclear physics are two flourishing but distinct branches of physics; the subject of isotope shifts in atomic spectra is one of the few that links these two branches. It is a subject that…
