Linking NH$^+_4$ motion to magnetism in molecular multiferroic (NH 4 ) 2 ⁢[FeCl 5 ⁢(H 2 ⁢O)]: A neutron vibrational spectroscopy study

Here, we present a neutron vibrational spectroscopy study to investigate the influence of NH$^+_4$ motion on the magnetism in [(NH 4 ) 1–x K x ] 2 ⁢[FeCl 5 ⁢(H 2 ⁢O)]. The parent compounds, (NH 4 ) 2 ⁢[FeCl 5 ⁢(H 2 ⁢O)] (x = 0) and K 2 ⁡[FeCl 5 ⁢(H 2 ⁢O)]⁢(x = 1) are isostructural at room temperature, yet displaying drastically different magnetic and multiferroic behavior. K 2 ⁡[FeCl 5 ⁢(H 2 ⁢O)] is nonmultiferroic with type-A collinear antiferromagnetic structure below T N ≈ 14.06 K, whereas (NH 4 ) 2 ⁢[FeCl 5 ⁢(H 2 ⁢O)] is a type-II multiferroic with incommensurate cycloidal spin structure below T FE ≈ 6.8 K. A recent study of the dielectric, structure, and magnetic properties in the mixed [(NH 4 ) 1–x ⁢K x ] 2 ⁢[FeCl 5 ⁢(H 2 ⁢O)] shows that a small amount of potassium substitution to replace NH$^+_4$ transforms the spin structure from incommensurate cycloidal (x ≤ 0.06) into commensurate collinear antiferromagnetic (x ≥ 0.15), indicating NH$^+_4$ is essential to the emergent phenomena observed in this molecular multiferroic compound. Our vibrational spectroscopy study reveals that NH$^+_4$ libration and torsion motion exhibit substantial temperature dependence at low temperatures. The intensity of NH$^+_4$ libration and torsion modes increases slightly at 5 K in comparison with data at 25 K behaving like a magnon, indicating that they are coupled to the magnetism in (NH 4 ) 2 ⁢[FeCl 5 ⁢(H 2 ⁢O)]. Comparing data of x=0, 0.06, 0.09, and 0.15 samples further illustrates that the strength of the increased signal in NH$^+_4$ libration mode is very sensitive to potassium concentration. The signal diminishes quickly with increasing potassium concentration and vanishes in the x = 0.15 sample corresponding to the magnetic structure change for x ≥ 0.15. The results directly link the anomalous behavior in NH$^+_4$ libration motion to the magnetism in [(NH 4 ) 1–x ⁢K x ] 2 ⁢[FeCl 5 ⁢(H 2 ⁢O)], providing new insights into the crucial role NH$^+_4$ plays in the coupled phenomena in (NH 4 ) 2 ⁢[FeCl 5 ⁢(H 2 ⁢O)]. The unique information opens a new door to go through in searching for new multifunctional materials by incorporation of NH 4 via a material-by-design approach.

Total absorption spectroscopy of the β decay of 101,102 Zr and 109 Tc

The β decay of 101,102 Zr and 109 Tc was studied using the technique of total absorption spectroscopy. The experiment was performed at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory using the Summing NaI(Tl) (SuN) detector in the first-ever application of total absorption spectroscopy with a fast beam produced via projectile fragmentation. The β -decay feeding intensity and Gamow-Teller transition strength distributions were extracted for these three decays. The extracted distributions were compared to three different quasiparticle random-phase approximation (QRPA) models based on different mean-field potentials. A comparison with calculations from one of the QRPA models was performed to learn about the ground-state shape of the parent nucleus. For 101 Zr and 102 Zr, calculations assuming a pure shape configuration (oblate or prolate) were not able to reproduce the extracted distributions. These results may indicate that some type of mixture between oblate and prolate shapes is necessary to reproduce the extracted distributions. For 109 Tc, a comparison of the extracted distributions with QRPA calculations suggests a dominant oblate configuration. The other two QRPA models are commonly used to provide β-decay properties in r-process network calculations. This work shows the importance of making comparisons between the experimental and theoretical β-decay distributions, rather than just half-lives and β-delayed neutron emission probabilities, as close to the r-process path as possible.

Nuclear spectroscopy with heavy ion nucleon knockout and (p,2p) reactions

Knockout reactions with heavy ion targets in inverse kinematics, as well as “quasifree” (p,2p) and (p,pn) reactions are useful tools for nuclear spectroscopy. We report calculations on ab initio many-body wave functions based on the no-core shell model to study the nucleon removal reactions in light nuclei, including beryllium, carbon, and oxygen isotopic chains, and explore the importance of using an ab initio method. Our study helps to clarify how the extraction of spectroscopic factors from the experiments depend on the details of the many-body wave functions being probed. We show that recent advances with the ab initio method can provide more insights on the spectroscopy information extracted from experiments.

Decay spectroscopy of 160 Eu: Quasiparticle configurations of excited states and structure of K π = 4 + bandheads in 160 Gd

Background: Detailed spectroscopy of neutron-rich, heavy, deformed nuclei is of broad interest for nuclear astrophysics and nuclear structure. Nuclei in the r-process path and following freeze-out region impact the resulting r-process abundance distribution, and the structure of nuclei midshell in both proton and neutron number helps to understand the evolution of subshell gaps and large deformation in these nuclei. Purpose: We aim to improve the understanding of the nuclear structure of 160 Gd, specifically the K π = 4 + bands, as well as study the β decay of 160 Eu into 160 Gd. Methods: High-statistics decay spectroscopy of 160 Gd resulting from the β-decay of 160 Eu was collected using the GRIFFIN spectrometer at the TRIUMF-ISAC facility. Results: Two new excited states and ten new transitions were observed in 160 Gd. The β-decaying half-lives of the low- and high-spin isomers in 160 Eu were determined, and the low-spin state's half-life was measured to be t 1/2 = 26.0 (8) s, ≈ 16% shorter than previous measurements. Lifetimes of the two K π = 4 + bandheads in 160 Gd were measured for the first time, as well as γ – γ angular correlations and mixing ratios of intense transitions out of those bandheads. Conclusions: Lifetimes and mixing ratios suggest that the hexadecapole phonon model of the K π = 4 + bandheads in 160 Gd is preferred over a simple two-state strong mixing scenario, although further theoretical calculations are needed to fully understand these states. Additionally, the 1999.0-keV state in 160 Gd heavily populated in β decay is shown to have positive parity, which raises questions regarding the structure of the high-spin β-decaying state in 160 Eu.

Spectroscopy of 13 Be through isobaric analog states in 13 B

Spectroscopy of the exotic, neutron-unbound beryllium isotope, 13 Be, is still a puzzle despite significant experimental efforts. To observe T = 5/2 states in 13 B, establish spin parities and spectroscopic factors, and use isospin symmetry to inform spectroscopy of 13 Be, excitation functions for resonance elastic scattering of 12 Be on protons were measured in the c.m. energy range from 1 MeV to 5 MeV. Two T = 5/2 states in 13 B at excitation energies 18.25 MeV and 19.95 MeV were observed. Unambiguous 1/2 + and 5/2 + spin-parity assignments were made, and spectroscopic factors were established using R-matrix analysis of the measured 12 Be + p excitation functions. Here, we provide the first direct and unambiguous spin-parity assignments and spectroscopic factor measurements for the resonances in the A = 13, T = 5/2 isobaric multiplet. This puts us on a solid footing to identify the 2.3 MeV state in 13 Be as 5/2 + and infer the existence of an s-wave (1/2 + ) resonance at around 0.6 MeV with a relatively small spectroscopic factor.

High-resolution hypernuclear spectroscopy at Jefferson Lab, Hall A

The experiment E94-107 in Hall A at Jefferson Lab started a systematic study of high resolution hypernuclear spectroscopy in the 0 p -shell region of nuclei such as the hypernuclei produced in electroproduction on 9 Be, 12 C and 16 O targets. In order to increase counting rates and provide unambiguous kaon identification two superconducting septum magnets and a ring-imaging Cherenkov detector were added to the Hall A standard equipment. The high-quality beam, the good spectrometers and the new experimental devices allowed us to obtain very good results. Here, measurable strength with sub-MeV energy resolution was recorded for the core-excited states of $^{12}_{Λ}$B. A high-quality$^{16}_{Λ}N hypernuclear spectrum was likewise obtained. A first measurement of the Λ binding energy for Lambda 16N, calibrated against the elementary reaction on hydrogen, was obtained with high precision, 13.76 ± 0.16 MeV. Similarly, the first$^{9}_{Λ}Li hypernuclear spectrum shows general agreement with theory (distorted-wave impulse approximation with the SLA and BS3 electroproduction models and shell-model wave functions). Some disagreement exists with respect to the relative strength of the states making up the first multiplet. A Λ separation energy of 8.36 MeV was obtained, in agreement with previous results. It has been observed that the electroproduction of hypernuclei can provide information complementary to that obtained with hadronic probes and the γ-ray spectroscopy technique.

Probing Sizes and Shapes of Nobelium Isotopes by Laser Spectroscopy

Until recently, ground-state nuclear moments of the heaviest nuclei could only be inferred from nuclear spectroscopy, where model assumptions are required. Here, laser spectroscopy in combination with modern atomic structure calculations is now able to probe these moments directly, in a comprehensive and nuclear- model-independent way. In this work, we reported on unique access to the differential mean-square charge radii of 252,253,254 No, and therefore to changes in nuclear size and shape. State-of-the-art nuclear density functional calculations describe well the changes in nuclear charge radii in the region of the heavy actinides, indicating an appreciable central depression in the deformed proton density distribution in 252,254 No isotopes.

Free Space Ramsey Spectroscopy in Rubidium with Noise below the Quantum Projection Limit

In this work, we demonstrate the utility of optical cavity generated spin-squeezed states in free space atomic fountain clocks in ensembles of 390 000 87 Rb atoms. Fluorescence imaging, correlated to an initial quantum nondemolition measurement, is used for population spectroscopy after the atoms are released from a confining lattice. For a free fall time of 4 milliseconds, we resolve a single-shot phase sensitivity of 814(61) microradians, which is 5.8(0.6) decibels (dB) below the quantum projection limit. We observe that this squeezing is preserved as the cloud expands to a roughly 200 μ m radius and falls roughly 300 μm in free space. Ramsey spectroscopy with 240 000 atoms at a 3.6 ms Ramsey time results in a single-shot fractional frequency stability of 8.4(0.2) × 10 –12 , 3.8(0.2) dB below the quantum projection limit. The sensitivity and stability are limited by the technical noise in the fluorescence detection protocol and the microwave system, respectively.

Effects of Autoionizing Resonances on Wave-Packet Dynamics Studied by Time-Resolved Photoelectron Spectroscopy

Here, we report a combined experimental and theoretical study on the effect of autoionizing resonances in time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. The coherent excitation of N 2 by ~14.15 eV extreme-ultraviolet photons prepares a superposition of three dominant adjacent vibrational levels (v'=14–16) in the valence b' 1 $Σ^+_u$ state, which are probed by the absorption of two or three near-infrared photons (800 nm). The superposition manifests itself as coherent oscillations in the measured photoelectron spectra. A quantum-mechanical simulation confirms that two autoionizing Rydberg states converging to the excited A 2 Π u and B 2 $Σ^+_u$ $N^+_2$ cores are accessed by the resonant absorption of near-infrared photons. We show that these resonances apply different filters to the observation of the vibrational wave packet, which results in different phases and amplitudes of the oscillating photoelectron signal depending on the nature of the autoionizing resonance. This work clarifies the importance of resonances in time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy and particularly reveals the phase of vibrational quantum beats as a powerful observable for characterizing the properties of such resonances.

Precision spectroscopy of fast, hot, exotic isotopes using machine-learning-assisted event-by-event Doppler correction

We propose an experimental scheme for performing sensitive, high-precision laser spectroscopy studies on fast exotic isotopes. By inducing a stepwise resonant ionization of the atoms traveling inside an electric field and subsequently detecting the ion and the corresponding electron, time-, and position-sensitive measurements of the resulting particles can be performed. Using a mixture density network, we can leverage this information to predict the initial energy of individual atoms and thus apply a Doppler correction of the observed transition frequencies on an event-by-event basis. We conduct numerical simulations of the proposed experimental scheme and show that kHz-level uncertainties can be achieved for ion beams produced at extreme temperatures ( > 10 8 K), with energy spreads as large as 10 keV and nonuniform velocity distributions. The ability to perform in-flight spectroscopy, directly on highly energetic beams, offers unique opportunities to study short-lived isotopes with lifetimes in the millisecond range and below, produced in low quantities, in hot and highly contaminated environments, without the need for cooling techniques. Such species are of marked interest for nuclear structure, astrophysics, and new physics searches. Published by the American Physical Society 2024

Extracting doubly excited state lifetimes in helium directly in the time domain with attosecond noncollinear four-wave-mixing spectroscopy

The helium atom, with one nucleus and two electrons, is a prototypical system to study quantum many-body dynamics. Doubly excited states, or quantum states in which both electrons are excited by one photon, showcase electronic-correlation mediated effects. In this paper, the natural lifetimes of the doubly excited 1 P o 2 s n p Rydberg series and the 1 S e 2 p 2 dark state in helium in the 60–65 eV region are measured directly in the time domain with extreme-ultraviolet/near-infrared noncollinear attosecond four-wave-mixing (FWM) spectroscopy. The measured lifetimes agree with lifetimes deduced from spectral linewidths and theoretical predictions, and the roles of specific decay mechanisms are considered. While complex spectral line shapes in the form of Fano resonances are common in absorption spectroscopy of autoionizing states, the background-free and thus homodyned character of noncollinear FWM results exclusively in Lorentzian spectral features in the absence of strong-field effects. The onset of strong-field effects that would affect the extraction of accurate natural lifetimes in helium by FWM is determined to be approximately 0.3 Rabi cycles. This study provides a systematic understanding of the FWM parameters necessary to enable accurate lifetime extractions, which can be utilized in more complex quantum systems in the future.

Tunneling spectroscopy in superconducting circuit lattices

We demonstrate tunneling spectroscopy of synthetic quantum matter in superconducting circuit lattices. We measure site-resolved excitation spectra by coupling the lattice to engineered driven-dissipative particle baths that serve as local tunneling probes. Using incoherent particle source and drain, we independently extract quasiparticle and quasihole spectra and reconstruct the spatial structure of collective excitations. We perform spectroscopy of a strongly interacting Bose-Hubbard lattice to measure changes in energy spectra for superfluid and Mott-insulator states at different densities and observe the effects of three-body interactions. Our results provide a toolset for characterizing many-body states in analog quantum simulators. Published by the American Physical Society 2025

Rapid Prediction of Low (<1%) trans Fat Content in Edible Oils and Fast Food Lipid Extracts by Infrared Spectroscopy and Partial Least Squares Regression

Abstract The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) ruled that partially hydrogenated oils (PHO), the major dietary source of industrially produced trans fat (TF), were no longer “generally recognized as safe (GRAS)” for any use in human food. Consequently, the objective of this study was to develop a rapid screening procedure using attenuated total reflection Fourier‐transform infrared (ATR‐FTIR) spectroscopy in conjunction with partial least squares regression (PLSR) for the quantitative and accurate prediction of low concentrations of trans fatty acid (TFAs) (<1% of total fatty acids (FAs)). Broad‐based calibration models were developed for a combined set of samples consisting of edible oils and fast food lipid extracts. Predicted concentrations of TFAs in the two matrices showed good correlation with the primary reference data generated by gas chromatography (GC) ( R 2 > 0.99) and high accuracy as evidenced by low root‐mean‐square error of cross‐validation (RMSECV) values. The lowest TFA concentration, determined by GC to be 0.13% of total FAs, was accurately predicted by ATR‐FTIR/PLSR as 0.18% of total FAs. This simple, rapid ATR‐FTIR/PLSR methodology has the potential for use as a screening alternative to conventional gas chromatographic methods for predicting the TFA content of edible oils and food lipid extracts for regulatory purposes and quality control of raw material and processed food. Practical Applications F DA ruled that partially hydrogenated oils were no longer “generally recognized as safe (GRAS)” for any use in human food. Consequently, we have proposed a rapid screening procedure, based on infrared spectroscopy and chemometrics, to rapidly and accurately predict low concentrations of trans fatty acids (<1% of total fatty acids) in edible oils and food lipid extracts.

Rapid determination of soil classes in soil profiles using vis–NIR spectroscopy and multiple objectives mixed support vector classification

Summary Visible‐near infrared (vis–NIR) spectroscopy can reveal various soil properties and facilitate soil classification. However, few studies have attempted to classify vertical soil profiles that contain several genetic horizons. Here, we propose the ‘multiple objectives mixed support vector classification’ (MOM–SVC) method to classify soil profiles. A total of 130 soil profiles were collected from genetic horizons in Zhejiang Province, China. After laboratory analysis, soil profiles were classified according to the Chinese Soil Taxonomy system. Vis–NIR spectra were recorded from each genetic horizon of each soil profile and were then pre‐processed. We performed the MOM–SVC method as follows: (i) created a support vector machine (SVM) model (one‐versus‐one approach) using spectral data from all soil horizons in calibration profiles, (ii) applied the SVM model on each horizon of the profile to be predicted, (iii) extracted ‘votes’ from each horizon and mixed (or summarized) them into the votes of each profile to be predicted and (iv) classified each profile by the majority‐voting method. We also investigated whether the additional input of auxiliary soil information (e.g. moist soil colour, soil organic matter and soil texture), which could be measured easily or be well predicted by vis–NIR spectroscopy, could improve the accuracy of soil classification when combined with it. Independent validation results showed that the MOM–SVC method performed better at the soil order level than at the suborder level. Adding auxiliary soil information to the classification model improved the overall accuracy of classification at the soil order level. The proposed MOM–SVC method provides a fast objective diagnostic of soil classes for use in soil surveys and can help to update soil databases when a more objective soil classification system is developed. Highlights The MOM–SVC method can be used to classify soil profiles objectively with a variety of soil horizons. Stratified random sampling was used to quantify prediction uncertainty in classification MOM–SVC can predict soil orders with greater accuracy than suborders. Adding auxiliary soil information into the classification model improved prediction accuracy.

Foliar functional traits from imaging spectroscopy across biomes in eastern North America

Summary Foliar functional traits are widely used to characterize leaf and canopy properties that drive ecosystem processes and to infer physiological processes in Earth system models. Imaging spectroscopy provides great potential to map foliar traits to characterize continuous functional variation and diversity, but few studies have demonstrated consistent methods for mapping multiple traits across biomes. With airborne imaging spectroscopy data and field data from 19 sites, we developed trait models using partial least squares regression, and mapped 26 foliar traits in seven NEON (National Ecological Observatory Network) ecoregions (domains) including temperate and subtropical forests and grasslands of eastern North America. Model validation accuracy varied among traits (normalized root mean squared error, 9.1–19.4%; coefficient of determination, 0.28–0.82), with phenolic concentration, leaf mass per area and equivalent water thickness performing best across domains. Across all trait maps, 90% of vegetated pixels had reasonable values for one trait, and 28–81% provided high confidence for multiple traits concurrently. Maps of 26 traits and their uncertainties for eastern US NEON sites are available for download, and are being expanded to the western United States and tundra/boreal zone. These data enable better understanding of trait variations and relationships over large areas, calibration of ecosystem models, and assessment of continental‐scale functional diversity.

Spectroscopy outperforms leaf trait relationships for predicting photosynthetic capacity across different forest types

Leaf trait relationships are widely used to predict ecosystem function in Terrestrial Biosphere Models (TBMs), in which leaf maximum carboxylation capacity (V c,max ), an important trait for modelling photosynthesis, can be inferred from other easier- to-measure traits. However, whether trait-V c,max relationships are robust across different forest types remains unclear. Here we used measurements of leaf traits, including one morphological trait (leaf mass per area), three biochemical traits (leaf water content, area-based leaf nitrogen content, and leaf chlorophyll content), one physiological trait (V c,max ), as well as leaf reflectance spectra, and explored their relationships within and across three contrasting forest types in China. We found weak and forest type-specific relationships between V c,max and the four morphological and biochemical traits (R 2 ≤ 0.15), indicated by significantly changing slopes and intercepts across forest types. In contrast, reflectance spectroscopy effectively collapsed the differences in the trait-V c,max relationships across three forest biomes into a single robust model for V c,max (R 2 = 0.77), and also accurately estimated the four traits (R 2 = 0.75-0.94). Furthermore, these findings challenge the traditional use of empirical trait-V c,max relationships in TBMs for estimating terrestrial plant photosynthesis, but also highlight spectroscopy as an efficient alternative for characterizing V c,max and multi-trait variability, with critical insights into ecosystem modeling and functional trait ecology.
