Hyperfine-structure study in the P sequence of 23 Na using quantum-beam spectroscopy
Describes use of the quantum-beat method to study hyperfine structure in the 5 2 P 3/2 and 6 2 P 3/2 states of 23 Na. A pulsed dye laser, frequency-doubled into the UV region, was used to excite sodium atoms abruptly in a beam. The fluorescent light was recorded with a fast transient digitiser, interfaced to a micro-computer. Theoretical calculations using many-body perturbation theory were performed for the entire P sequence measured so far, taking polarisation and correlation effects into account separately. Very good agreement between experimental and theoretical values was obtained
Combination of navigational and VDRbased information to enhance alert management
ABSTRACT: Within this paper results of ongoing investigations will be presented. Main subject of studies is laid on the present situation of alert management onboard ships navigational bridges and potential use of data recorded with mandatory ship-borne VDR equipment during normal ship operation to support the process of on board collision avoidance. The investigations and results discussed and presented in the paper are gained within trhe work in two different projects on research and technical development
Measurement of the hyperfine structure splitting for the 4 and 5^(2)P_(1/2) states of sodium using radio-frequency spectroscopy
The hyperfine-structure splitting for the 4 and 52P1/2 states of sodium was measured using step-wise laser excitation combined with rf-resonance techniques. The magnetic dipole interaction constants were found to be a(42P1/2)=30.4(5) MHz and a(52P1/2) =13.3(2) MHz. The results are compared with a theoretical calculation, taking polarization effects into account
Isotope shifts in dysprosium measured by high resolution laser spectroscopy
Using a pulsed dye laser, acting on a collimated atomic beam, the isotope shifts between the dysprosium isotopes 164, 162, and 160 were measured with high precision in three lines, , and 5652 Å
High resolution laser fluorescence spectroscopy in the deep blue spectral region
High-resolution laser spectroscopy measurements have been performed in the wavelength region around 4000 Å using a pulsed dye laser acting on a collimated atomic beam. Extra-cavity Fabry-Pérot filtering was used to achieve a narrow line-width of the laser light. Isotope shifts were measured in the 4216 Å and 4202 Å rubidium lines with the result ?s(87, 85)=124.3(4)MHz, and?s(87, 85) = 124.2(7)MHz, respectively, and in the 3988 Å ytterbium line with the resultds(176, 174)=-509(4)MHz, ?s(174, 172)=-530(4) MHz
