First direct mass measurement of the neutron-deficient nucleus Al24
Abstract
The first direct mass measurement of the neutron-deficient nucleus Al24 was performed via Penning-Trap Mass Spectrometry (PTMS) using TRIUMF's Ion Trap for Atomic and Nuclear science (TITAN). This measurement was facilitated by the use of TRIUMF's new Ion-Guide Laser Ion Source (IG-LIS), which reduced A=24 isobaric contamination in the delivered beam by nearly six orders of magnitude. The measured mass excess was found to be Δ=−48.86(23) keV, …
