Measurement of the K+ → π+γγ decay

Alessandro Mapelli, Radoslav Marchevski, Alina Kleimenova

A sample of 3984 candidates of the K+ -> pi(+)gamma gamma decay, with an estimated background of 291 +/- 14 events, was collected by the NA62 experiment at CERN during 2017-2018. In order to describe the observed di-photon mass spectrum, the next-to-leadin ...

Electromagnetic processes of nuclear excitation: from direct photoabsorption to free electron and muon capture

Simone Gargiulo

In the vast expanse of the Universe and on our planet, nuclei exist in a state of excitement. These excited nuclear states (isomers) can persist for varying periods, from fractions of a second to billions of years and beyond, before decaying to their groun ...

Excitation of toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes with counter-current NBI in the TCV tokamak

Laurie Porte, Alexander Karpushov, Matteo Vallar, Samuele Mazzi

In TCV, unstable modes excited by resonant interaction between the shear Alfvèn waves in con- tinuum gaps and energetic particles have been observed in scenarios with Neutral Beam Injection (NBI). TCV is a middle-size device (R 0 /a = 0.88/0.25) equipped w ...

Erbium and thulium on MgO(100)/Ag(100) as candidates for single atom qubits

Harald Brune, François Patthey, Stefano Rusponi, Marina Pivetta, Fabio Donati, Aparajita Singha, Edgar Fernandes

Lanthanide atoms on surfaces are an exceptional platform for atomic-scale magnetic information storage. However, their potential as qubits remains unexplored due to the limited number of experimental setups that can coherently drive the spins of single ada ...

Dynamical Control of Nuclear Isomer Depletion via Electron Vortex Beams

Fabrizio Carbone, Simone Gargiulo

Some nuclear isomers are known to store a large amount of energy over long periods of time, with a very high energy-to-mass ratio. Here, we describe a protocol to achieve the external control of the isomeric nuclear decay by using electron vortex beams who ...

Acid-base-induced fac → mer isomerization of luminescent iridium(iii) complexes

Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Albert Ruggi, Anastasia Gitlina

Luminescent Ir(C^N)3 complexes (C^N = cyclometalated arylpyridine ligand) exist in the form of two stable isomers with distinct photophysical and electrochemical properties: fac and mer. Herein, we show that fac-Ir(C^N)3 complexes can be converted into the ...

Chiral control of spin-crossover dynamics in Fe (II) complexes

Majed Chergui, Malte Oppermann

Iron-based spin-crossover complexes hold tremendous promise as multifunctional switches in molecular devices. However, real-world technological applications require the excited high-spin state to be kinetically stable-a feature that has been achieved only ...
