Measurements of the difference between the squared charge radii of the helion ($^3$He nucleus) and the $\alpha$-particle ($^4$He nucleus) have been characterized by longstanding tensions, recently spotlighted in the 3.6 $\sigma$ discrepancy…
Lattice QCD calculations of nucleon form factors are restricted to discrete values of the Euclidean four-momentum transfer. Therefore, the extraction of radii typically relies on parametrizing and fitting the lattice QCD data to obtain its…
We present the theoretical calculations of the electronic isotope shift factors of the $5d^{7}6s^{2} \ ^{4}\!F_{9/2} \to (\mbox{odd},J= 9/2)$ line at 247.587 nm, that were recently used to extract nuclear mean square radii and nuclear…
Non-radiative decay in photoexcited molecular systems is driven by nuclear motion toward conical intersections (CIs), where electronic states become degenerate and nonadiabatic transitions occur. Identifying the nuclear degrees of freedom…
We show that the charge radii of neighboring atomic nuclei, independent of atomic number and charge, follow remarkably very simple relations, despite the fact that atomic nuclei are complex finite many-body systems governed by the laws of…
We theoretically prove a multifunctional photonic differentiation (DIFF) scheme based on phase demodulation using two cascaded linear filters. The photonic DIFF has a diversity of output forms, such as 1st order intensity DIFF, 1st order…
The nuclear charge radius of Li-11 has been determined for the first time by high precision laser spectroscopy. On-line measurements at TRIUMF-ISAC yielded a Li-7 - Li-11 isotope shift (IS) of 25101.23(13) MHz for the Doppler-free 2s - 3s…
Understanding how nuclear size evolves with the number of protons and neutrons tests our models of strongly interacting matter. The nuclear charge (and proton) radii accessible through electromagnetic probes carry fundamental information on…
The rotational constant parametrizes the relative spacing between a molecule's rotational energy levels. It depends on the molecule's classical moments of inertia, which, in all studies, are expressed by treating the constituent nuclei as…
Nuclear charge radii of $^{7,9,10,11}$Be have been determined by high-precision laser spectroscopy. On-line measurements were performed with collinear laser spectroscopy in the $2s_{1/2} \to 2p_{1/2}$ transition on a beam of Be$^{+}$ ions.…

Ground-state hyperfine splittings in hydrogen and muonium are very well measured. Their difference, after correcting for magnetic moment and reduced mass effects, is due solely to proton structure--the large QED contributions for a…

To date the magnetic radius of the proton has been determined only by means of electron-proton scattering, which is not free of controversies. Any existing atomic determinations are irrelevant because they are strongly model-dependent. We…
