The Stark shift of the ytterbium optical clock transition due to room temperature blackbody radiation is dominated by a static Stark effect, which was recently measured to high accuracy [J. A. Sherman et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 153002 (2012)]. However, room temperature operation of the clock at 10^{-18} inaccuracy requires a dynamic correction to this static approximation. This dynamic correction largely depends on a single electric dipole matrix element for which theoretically and experimentally derived values disagree significantly. We determine this important matrix element by two independent methods, which yield consistent values. Along with precise radiative lifetimes of 6s6p 3P1 and 5d6s 3D1, we report the clocks blackbody radiation shift to 0.05% precision.

A calculation of the blackbody radiation shift of the B$^+$ clock transition is performed. The polarizabilities of the B$^+$ $2s^2$ $^1$S$^e$, $2s2p$ $^1$P$^o$, and $2s2p$ $^3$P$^o$ states are computed using the configuration interaction method with an underlying semi-empirical core potential. The recommended dipole polarizabilities are 9.64(3) $a_0^3$, 7.78(3) $a_0^3$ and 16.55(5) $a_0^3$ respectively. The derived frequency shift for the $2s^2$ $^1$S$^e$ $to$ $2s2p$ $^3$P$^o_0$ transition at 300 K is 0.0160(5) Hz. The dipole polarizabilities agree with an earlier relativistic calculation (Safronova {em et al.} Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf 107} 143006 (2011)) to better than 0.2%. Quadrupole and octupole polarizabilities and non-adiabatic multipole polarizabilities are also reported.
We evaluated the static and dynamic polarizabilities of the 5s^2 ^1S_0 and 5s5p ^3P_0^o states of Sr using the high-precision relativistic configuration interaction + all-order method. Our calculation explains the discrepancy between the recent experimental 5s^2 ^1S_0 - 5s5p ^3P_0^o dc Stark shift measurement Delta alpha = 247.374(7) a.u. [Middelmann et. al, arXiv:1208.2848 (2012)] and the earlier theoretical result of 261(4) a.u. [Porsev and Derevianko, Phys. Rev. A 74, 020502R (2006)]. Our present value of 247.5 a.u. is in excellent agreement with the experimental result. We also evaluated the dynamic correction to the BBR shift with 1 % uncertainty; -0.1492(16) Hz. The dynamic correction to the BBR shift is unusually large in the case of Sr (7 %) and it enters significantly into the uncertainty budget of the Sr optical lattice clock. We suggest future experiments that could further reduce the present uncertainties.
We measure the dynamic differential scalar polarizabilities at 10.6 $mu$m for two candidate clock transitions in $^{176}mathrm{Lu}^+$. The fractional black body radiation (BBR) shifts at 300 K for the $^1S_0 leftrightarrow {^3D_1}$ and $^1S_0 leftrightarrow {^3D_2}$ transitions are evaluated to be $-1.36,(9) times 10^{-18}$ and $2.70 ,(21) times10^{-17}$, respectively. The former is the lowest of any established optical atomic clock.
Black-body radiation (BBR) shifts of $^3!P_0-^1!S_0$ clock transition in divalent atoms Cd and Zn are evaluated using accurate relativistic many-body techniques of atomic structure. Static polarizabilities of the clock levels and relevant electric-dipole matrix elements are computed. We also present a comparative overview of the BBR shifts in optical clocks based on neutral divalent atoms trapped in optical lattices.
We present precise values of the dipole polarizabilities ($alpha$) of the ground $rm [4f^{14}6s] ~ ^2S_{1/2}$ and metastable $rm [4f^{14} 5d] ~ ^2D_{3/2}$ states of Yb$^+$, that are %vital {bf important} in reducing systematics in the clock frequency of the $rm[4f^{14}6s] ~ ^2S_{1/2} rightarrow [4f^{14}5d] ~ ^2D_{3/2}$ transition. The static values of $alpha$ for the ground and $rm [4f^{14} 5d] ~ ^2D_{3/2}$ states are estimated to be $9.8(1) times 10^{-40} ,,rm Jm^2V^{-2}$ and $17.6(5) times 10^{-40},, rm Jm^2V^{-2}$, respectively, while the tensor contribution to the $rm [4f^{14} 5d] ~ ^2D_{3/2}$ state as $- 12.3(3) times 10^{-40},, rm Jm^2V^{-2}$ compared to the experimental value $-13.6(2.2) times 10^{-40},,rm Jm^2V^{-2}$. This corresponds to the differential scalar polarizability value of the above transition as $-7.8$(5)$,times, 10^{-40},rm Jm^2 V^{-2}$ in contrast to the available experimental value $-6.9$(1.4)$,times, 10^{-40}$,, $rm Jm^2V^{-2}$. This results in the black-body radiation (BBR) shift of the clock transition as $-0.44(3)$ Hz at the room temperature, which is large as compared to the previously estimated values. Using the dynamic $alpha$ values, we report the tune-out and magic wavelengths that could be of interest to subdue %major systematics due to the Stark shifts and for constructing lattice optical clock using Yb$^+$.
