Intra-atomic exchange couplings (IEC) between $5d6s$ and $4f$ electrons are ubiquitous in rare-earth metals and play a critical role in spin dynamics. However, detecting them in real time domain has been difficult. Here we show the direct…
We present the first measurements of the temporal decay rate of one-dimensional, linear Langmuir waves excited by an ultra-short laser pulse. Langmuir waves with relative amplitudes of approximately $6\%$ were driven by $1.7$ J, $50$ fs…
Electric quadrupole (E2) and magnetic dipole (M1) transition amplitudes among the low-lying states of quadruply ionized vanadium V$^{4+}$, important in various field of experimental and astrophysics are presented very accurately. Most of…
Fluorescence spectra of the $8P_{J} \rightarrow 6P_{J'}$ ($J$ and $J'$ = 3/2, 1/2) electric quadrupole transition of cesium atoms have been observed with a heated cesium vapor cell. We determined the ratio of the transition probabilities of…
We have investigated the hole dynamics at copper surfaces by high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission experiments and many-body quasiparticle GW calculations. Large deviations from a free-electron-like picture are observed both in the…
The 15O(alpha,gamma)19Ne reaction plays a role in the ignition of Type I x-ray bursts on accreting neutron stars. The lifetimes of states in 19Ne above the 15O + alpha threshold of 3.53 MeV are important inputs to calculations of the…
We have recorded spectra of iron-neon and iron-argon hollow cathode lamps in the region 1700A -- 5um (59000 -- 2000cm-1), with Fourier transform (FT) spectrometers at the National Solar Observatory, Tucson, Arizona, U.S.A. and Imperial…
We present extensive calculations of radiative transition rates and electron impact collision strengths for Fe II. The data sets involve 52 levels from the $3d\,^7$, $3d\,^64s$, and $3d\,^54s^2$ configurations. Computations of $A$-values…
The perturbative calculation of the lifetime of charged excitations in ultrarelativistic plasmas is plagued with infrared divergences which are not eliminated by the screening corrections. The physical processes responsible for these…
Relativistic many-body perturbation theory is applied to study properties of ions of the francium isoelectronic sequence. Specifically, energies of the 7s, 7p, 6d, and 5f states of Fr-like ions with nuclear charges Z = 87 - 100 are…
Employing two state-of-the-art methods, second-order many-body perturbation theory and multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock, highly accurate calculations are performed for the lowest 318 fine-structure levels arising from the $2s^{2} 2p^{4}$, $2s…
We report a measurement of the radiative lifetime of the $^2F_{7/2}$ level of $^{171}$Yb$^+$ that is coupled to the $^2S_{1/2}$ ground state via an electric octupole transition. The radiative lifetime is determined to be $9.96(50)\times…
We present a comprehensive study of the electronic transitions in neutral cadmium (Cd I) with a focus on forbidden transitions, motivated by recent advances in laser technology and the growing relevance of cadmium in quantum gas research,…
We present lifetime measurements of the 7S1/2 level and the 6p manifold of rubidium. We use a timecorrelated single-photon counting technique on a sample of 85Rb atoms confined and cooled in a magneto-optic trap. The upper state of the…
Medium resolution ($\Delta \nu$ ~ 3 GHz) laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) excitation spectra of a rotationally cold sample of YbOH in the 17300-17950 cm$^{-1}$ range have been recorded using two-dimensional (excitation and dispersed…
A wide variety of feed gases are used to generate low-temperature plasmas for the microelectronics and the sustainability applications. These plasmas often have a complex combination of reactive and non-reactive species which may have…
Neutron deficient isotopes of Francium (Z=87, N=121-123) as excited nuclei were produced in the fusion-evaporation reaction: 197Au(16O,xn)[213-x]Fr at 100 MeV. The gamma-rays from the residues were observed through the high sensitivity…
Lifetimes for the lowest three transitions in the nucleus $^{120}$Xe have been measured using the Recoil Distance Technique. Our data indicate that the lifetime for the $2_{1}^{+} \to 0_{1}^{+}$ transition is more than a factor of two lower…
In this paper, energy levels, radiative rates and lifetimes are reported for 11 F-like ions with 12 $\le$ Z $\le$ 23. Up to 198 levels (depending on the ion) have been considered which include 113 of the 2s$^2$2p$^5$, 2s2p$^6$,…
The ab initio quasirelativistic Hartree-Fock method developed specifically for the calculation of spectral parameters of heavy atoms and highly charged ions is used to derive transition data for multicharged tungsten ion. The configuration…
