A new mechanism of nuclear excitation via two-photon electron transitions (NETP) is proposed and studied theoretically. As a generic example, detailed calculations are performed for the $E1E1$ $1s2s,^1S_0 rightarrow 1s^2,^1S_0$ two-photon decay of He-like $^{225}$Ac$^{87+}$ ion with the resonant excitation of the $3/2+$ nuclear state with the energy 40.09(5) keV. The probability for such a two-photon decay via the nuclear excitation is found to be $P_{rm NETP} = 3.5 times 10^{-9}$ and, thus, is comparable with other mechanisms, such as nuclear excitation by electron transition and by electron capture. The possibility for the experimental observation of the proposed mechanism is thoroughly discussed.

We present an analytical model that characterizes two-photon transitions in the presence of autoionising states. We applied this model to interpret resonant RABITT spectra, and show that, as a harmonic traverses a resonance, the phase of the sideband
beating significantly varies with photon energy. This phase variation is generally very different from the $pi$ jump observed in previous works, in which the direct path contribution was negligible. We illustrate the possible phase profiles arising in resonant two-photon transitions with an intuitive geometrical representation.
Two-photon resonance transition technology has been proven to have a wide range of applications,its limited by the available wavelength of commercial lasers.The application of optical comb technology with direct two-photon transition (DTPT) will not
be restricted by cw lasers.This article will further theoretically analyze the dynamics effects of the DTPT process driven by optical frequency combs. In a three-level atomic system, the population of particles and the amount of momentum transfer on atoms are increased compared to that of the DTPT-free process. The 17% of population increasement in 6-level system of cesium atoms has verified that DTPT process has a robust enhancement on the effect of momentum transfer. It can be used to excite the DTPTs of rubidium and cesium simultaneously with the same mode-locked laser. And this technology has potential applications in cooling different atoms to obtain polar cold molecules, as well as high-precision spectroscopy measurement.
We demonstrate the interaction-induced blockade effect in an ultracold $^{88}$Sr gas via studying the time dynamics of a two-photon excitation to the triplet Rydberg series $5mathrm{s}nmathrm{s}, ^3textrm{S}_1$ for five different principle quantum nu
mbers $n$ ranging from 19 to 37. By using a multi-pulse excitation sequence to increase the detection sensitivity we could identify Rydberg-excitation-induced atom losses as low as $<1%$. Based on an optical Bloch equation formalism, treating the Rydberg-Rydberg interaction on a mean-field level, the van der Waals coefficients are extracted from the observed dynamics, which agree fairly well with emph{ab initio} calculations.
Measurements of the phase of two-photon matrix elements are presented for near-resonant two-color ionization of helium. A tunable, narrow-bandwidth, near-infrared (NIR) laser source is used for extreme ultra-violet (XUV) high-harmonic generation (HHG
). The 15th harmonic of the laser is used within (1+1) XUV+NIR two-photon ionization, and tuned in and out of resonance with members of the 1s$n$p $^1$P$_1$ ($n=3,4,5$) Rydberg series. Rapid changes in the phase of the two-photon matrix elements around resonances and at the mid-way point between two resonances are observed, encoding the relative importance of resonant and near-resonant two-color ionization. Similar effects are observed for (1+2) XUV+NIR three-photon ionization. The experimental results are compared to a perturbative model and numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrodinger equation (TDSE) in the single active electron (SAE) approximation.
Long-lived excited states of atomic nuclei can act as energy traps. These states, known as nuclear isomers, can store a large amount of energy over long periods of time, with a very high energy-to-mass ratio. Under natural conditions, the trapped ene
rgy is only slowly released, limited by the long isomer lifetimes. Dynamical external control of nuclear state population has proven so far very challenging, despite ground-breaking incentives for a clean and efficient energy storage solution. Here, we describe a protocol to achieve the external control of the isomeric nuclear decay by using electrons whose wavefunction has been especially designed and reshaped on demand. Recombination of these electrons into the atomic shell around the isomer can lead to the controlled release of the stored nuclear energy. On the example of $^{93m}$Mo, we show that the use of tailored electron vortex beams increases the depletion by four orders of magnitude compared to the spontaneous nuclear decay of the isomer. Furthermore, specific orbitals can sustain an enhancement of the recombination cross section for vortex electron beams by as much as six orders of magnitude, providing a handle for manipulating the capture mechanism. These findings open new prospects for controlling the interplay between atomic and nuclear degrees of freedom, with potential energy-related and high-energy radiation sources applications.
