Direct interaction of nuclei with superintense laser fields — •Thomas Bürvenich — Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies, Frankfurt, Germany

The direct interaction of nuclei with superintense laser fields is studied. While direct laser-nucleus interactions have often been dismissed, we demonstrate that present and upcoming high-frequency laser facilities do allow for resonant laser-nucleus interaction. These direct interactions may be utilized for the model-independent optical measurement of nuclear properties or the preparation and control of nuclear states [1]. We further study non-resonant direct laser-nucleus interactions such as the dynamic nuclear Stark shift [2]. While electric dipole-allowed transitions in nuclei correspond most closely to atomic quantum optics, it is shown that in nuclei non-electric-dipole transitions are promising candidates [3]. Perspectives for the field of nuclear quantum optics are given.
