Charge radii and electromagnetic moments of 214−218 Bi : Exploring the “southern” border of the 𝑍 > 82 octupole-deformation region

The changes in the mean-squared charge radii relative to 209 Bi 126 (𝛿⁢⟨𝑟 2 ⟩ 𝑁,126 ) and the magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole moments in 214−218 Bi have been measured using the in-source resonance-ionization spectroscopy technique at ISOLDE (CERN). Magnetic moments of odd-odd bismuth nuclei have been analyzed by the additivity relation. Previous tentative spin-parity and configuration assignments based on the 𝛽-decay feeding patterns have been supported. A normal odd-even staggering in charge radii of bismuth isotopes with 𝑁>126 has been observed. The new data for the 𝛿⁡⟨𝑟 2 ⟩ of bismuth isotopes allow a study of the isotonic dependencies in the charge radii, revealing jumps in 𝛿⁢⟨𝑟 2 ⟩ 132,126 and 𝛿⁢⟨𝑟 2 ⟩ 134,126 at 𝑍 = 84. This pattern could be explained by a sudden onset of octupole deformation at 𝑁 = 132 and 134 when going from polonium (𝑍 = 84) to astatine (𝑍 = 85).

Piezo-Antenna: An Electromagnetic-Ultrasonic Data Transfer System

Electronic systems contained within sealed metallic enclosures, such as nuclear waste containers where wire penetration is not an option, require a through-wall data transfer technology to communicate. One such technology utilizes piezoelectric ultrasonic transducers to communicate through the barrier using elastic waves. Currently demonstrated ultrasonic through-wall data communication techniques have relied on having a direct interface with the ultrasonic transducers on either side. Here, this work studies the coupling of an antenna to such an ultrasonic communication system. A computationally efficient model of a piezobarrier ultrasonic communication system and antenna using a simplified antenna model and a transfer matrix piezobarrier model is utilized to perform a representative parameter space search. The system efficiency and bandwidth trends are shown for the system parameters as well as operating frequency. The tradeoff between efficiency and bandwidth is also presented. A system configuration within the parameter space is fabricated and demonstrated to achieve a data rate of up to 100 kb/s.

Observation of Electromagnetic Transients in a Nb3Sn 4-layer Dipole Mirror Magnet

During testing of the Stress Managed Cosine-Theta dipole mirror magnet SMCTM1, magnet quenches were observed following large voltage spikes in the half-coil voltage taps which preceded normal quench initiation. Following some recent work at CERN measuring power current converter transients in relation to flux jumps, an additional differential current probe was added to the magnet instrumentation. Measurements of this probe, as well as the half coil voltage taps show a fast and substantial current change preceding the quench, hinting at coil motion. A simple model based on relative shift of the inner and outer layer coils was developed which suggests the magnitude of coil shift events is on the estimated relative coil shift from the magnet constraint conditions. The behavior is shown to be reversible and characteristic of stick-slip.

CLAS Database for Studies of the Structure of Hadrons in Electromagnetic Processes

The CLAS Physics Database (CLAS DB) has been developed in collaboration between SINP at MSU and Hall B at Jefferson Lab. CLAS DB contains most experimental results on inclusive, semi-inclusive, and exclusive reactions on proton and nuclei obtained with the CLAS detector. The substantial part of these experimental results represents the only data sets available in the world. The results and analysis tools provided by the CLAS DB are of particular importance for studies of the structure of the ground and excited hadron states, offering insight into strong nonperturbative QCD dynamics, which underlie the generation of hadrons from quarks and gluons.

Two-loop contributions of axion-like particles to electromagnetic and chromomagnetic form factors

Abstract Axions and axion-like particles emerge in many models for physics beyond the Standard Model. Thus, they have gained increasing research interest in both experimental and theoretical physics apart from their original proposition as a solution to the strong CP -problem. Among other aspects it has recently been shown that ALPs can potentially provide a solution to the long-lasting discrepancy between theory and experiment of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. Provided that the ALP has flavor-violating couplings to leptons, they can also mediate flavor-violating decays like $$\mu \rightarrow e\gamma $$ μ → e γ . Both processes are mediated through related form factors that we compute to two-loop order. We further show numerical implications of our calculations and how they might affect constraints on ALP couplings derived from experiments.
