The excitation processes of the low energy isomeric level in nucleus 229Th by optical photons are investigated for different values of relations between energies of nuclear transition and photons. The role of the atomic shell, which "works" as electron bridge, is considered. The cross-sections of the resonance nuclear excitation by laser beam (the narrow line) and by special lamp (the wide line) are calculated. The possibilities of experimental researches are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
