A paramagnetic muonium (Mu) state with an extremely small hyperfine parameter was observed for the first time in single-crystalline GaN below 25 K. It has a highly anisotropic hyperfine structure with axial symmetry along the <0001> direction, suggesting that it is located either at a nitrogen-antibonding or a bond-centered site oriented parallel to the c axis. Its small ionization energy (<or=...

Corrections of orders α5 and α6 are calculated in the hyperfine splittings of 1S and 2S energy levels in the ion of muonic helium. The electron vacuum polarization effects, the nuclear structure corrections and recoil corrections are taken into account. The obtained numerical values of the hyperfine splittings -1334.56 meV (1S state), -166.62 meV (2S state) can be considered as a reliable estim...

Two new electronic transition systems, namely, the [14.0](2)Phi(7/2)-Chi (2)Delta(5/2) and the [15.7](2)Phi(5/2)-Chi (2)Delta(5/2) transitions were observed and analyzed using laser vaporization/reaction supersonic free jet expansion and high resolution laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy. In addition, the (v, 0) bands with v=6-10 of the [14.6](2)Delta(5/2)-Chi (2)Delta(5/2) transition were...

The rotational spectra of five weakly bonded hydrogen-OCS complexes (paraH(2), orthoH(2), HD, orthoD(2), and paraD(2)) are measured. Hyperfine structure is resolved and analyzed in all except the complex with paraH(2), where I=0. For the two j=1 species, orthoH(2)-OCS and paraD(2)-OCS, nuclear hyperfine coupling constants are found to be d(a)=21.2(2) and 8.4(2) kHz, respectively, indicative of ...

Theoretical investigations of the hyperfine structure of the hydrogen molecular ion (one electron and two protons) are discussed. The nuclear spin-rotation interaction has been found to be of the same sign as in the hydrogen molecule and the hyperfine transition frequencies can be accurately predicted. With measurements of the hyperfine structure of the deuterium molecular ion (or of HD) it sho...

High-precision experiments on the ground state hyperfine splitting in highly charged ions performed at the GSI facilities and at the EBITs (see, e.g., Refs. [1, 2, 3]) have triggered intensive theoretical investigations of this effect. The error bars of the theoretical hyperfine splitting values are mainly determined by the nuclear magnetization distribution correction, the so-called Bohr-Weiss...

– We present a new theoretical analysis of the strongly suppressed F-and M-dependent Stark shifts of the Cs ground state hyperfine structure. Our treatment uses third order perturbation theory including off-diagonal hyperfine interactions not considered in earlier treatments. A numerical evaluation of the perturbation sum using bound states up to n=200 yields ground state tensor polarizabilitie...

Experimental and theoretical methodologies have been developed to determine the hyperfine structure of molecular ions from detailed studies of the Rydberg spectrum and have been tested on molecular hydrogen. The hyperfine structure in l=0-3 Rydberg states of H2 located below the X 2Sigmag+(v+=0,N+=1) ground state of ortho H2+ has been measured in the range of principal quantum number n=50-65 at...

Although hydrogen cyanide has become quite a common molecular tracing species for a variety of astrophysical sources, it, however, exhibits dramatic non-LTE behaviour in its hyperfine line structure. Individual hyperfine components can be strongly boosted or suppressed. If these so-called hyperfine line anomalies are present in the HCN rotational spectra towards low or high mass cores, this wil...

By combining our theoretical calculation and recently measured electric quadrupole hyperfine structure constant of the 3d 2 D 5/2 state in the singly ionized 43 Ca, we determine its nuclear quadrupole moment to one percent accuracy. The obtained result, −0.0444(6)b, is about ten percent improvement over the considered standard value. We have employed the relativistic coupled-cluster theory at s...
