On-Line Laser-Spectroscopy on Nuclear Isomeric States

这是一项授予女科学家和女工程师的职业发展奖，授予德克萨斯A和M大学的一名教员。杜塔教授将与纽约州立大学石溪分校的吉恩·D·斯普劳斯教授合作，开发一种检测重放射性原子光学泵浦引起的核极化的技术。该方法将适用于远离稳定区的核同分异构体和核的自旋、力矩和形变的测量。

This grant is a Career Advancement Award for Women Scientists and Engineers made to a faculty member at Texas A. and M. University. Prof. Dutta will work with Prof. Gene D. Sprouse at State University of New York at Stony Brook on the development of a technique to detect nuclear polarization caused by optical pumping of heavy radioactive atoms. The method will have applicability to the measurement of nuclear spins, moments, and deformation for nuclear isomers and nuclei far from the region of stability.
