The Electron-Ion-Collider (EIC) will be a next-generation facility located at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), built with the goal of accelerating heavy ions up to 275 GeV. To prevent ion beam size growth during the acceleration phase,…

We demonstrate a spatial-imaging thermometry technique for ions in a one-dimensional Coulomb crystal by relating their imaged spatial extent along the linear radiofrequency ion trap axis to normal modes of vibration of coupled oscillators…

In-source resonance ionization spectroscopy was used to identify an efficient and selective three step excitation/ionization scheme of thorium, suitable for titanium:sapphire (Ti:sa) lasers. The measurements were carried out in preparation…
