In-source laser photoionization spectroscopy of Bi isotopes: accuracy of the technique and methods of data analysis

Hyperfine Interactions volume 241, Article number: 40 (2020) Cite this article

Abstract

The in-source laser photoionization spectroscopy was applied to study neutron-deficient Bi isotopes. Data analysis and accuracy-related aspects of this technique are discussed. The accuracy of the peak position evaluation is estimated. An “integration method” for nuclear spin determination in the case of partially resolved hyperfine spectra is discussed in detail.
