    Abstract: Branched chain chemical reactions represent a special class of chemical transformation reactions of matter, for the discovery and experimental-theoretical development of which Semenov N. N. and Hinshelwood C. N. were awarded the Nobel Prize in 1956. In nature, such processes are widespread. Objective. To investigate the nature of various numerical ... Show More

    Abstract: A solid-state nuclear clock based on the low-lying isomeric state in 229Th has attracted growing interest. One potential problem for the solid-state nuclear clock approach is the suitability of the doped environment for photon emission of the nuclear isomeric state. Specifically, Thn+ n < 4 ions could open non-radiative decay routes for deexcitation, hindering the photon emission. Here we have used time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations to characterize MgF2 crystals that have been implanted with 229Th recoils via a-d... Show More
