Photoinduced quenching of the ^{229}Th isomer in a solid-state host

Photoinduced quenching of the ^{229}Th isomer in a solid-state host

The population dynamics of the ^{229}Th isomeric state is studied in a solid-state host under laser illumination. A photoquenching process is observed, where off-resonant vacuum-ultraviolet (VUV) radiation leads to relaxation of the isomeric state. The cross-section for this photoquenching process i...
