Electronic bridge process in 229Th+
Abstract
We have studied the effect of atomic electrons on the nuclear transition from the isomeric 229mTh state to the ground 229gTh state in 229Th+ due to the electronic bridge process. The exact value of the nuclear transition frequency is unknown so far; therefore, we have developed a formalism that can be used for any nuclear transition frequency. We have calculated positions of several high-lying even-parity states which are not presented in experimental atomic spectra databases. We have found their energy levels and g factors.
