Investigation of the fine structure of antihydrogen

Shirit Cohen

At the historic Shelter Island Conference on the Foundations of Quantum Mechanics in 1947, Willis Lamb reported an unexpected feature in the fine structure of atomic hydrogen: a separation of the 2S(1/2) and 2P(1/2) states(1). The observation of this separ ...

Overview of the FTU results

Cristian Galperti, Gabriele Grosso, Filippo Bagnato

Since the 2016 IAEA Fusion Energy Conference, FTU operations have been mainly devoted to experiments on runaway electrons and investigations into a tin liquid limiter; other experiments have involved studies of elongated plasmas and dust. The tearing mode ...

Proton polarization above 70% by DNP using photo-excited triplet states, a first step towards a broadband neutron spin filter

Tim Rolf Eichhorn

The use of polarized protons as neutron spin filter is an attractive alternative to the well established neutron polarization techniques, as the large, spin-clepenclent neutron scattering cross-section for protons is useful up to the sub-MeV region. Employ ...
