Hyperfine structure (HFS) of atomic energy levels arises due to interactions of atomic electrons with a hierarchy of nuclear multipole moments, including magnetic dipole, electric quadrupole and higher rank moments. Recently, a determination of the magnetic octupole moment of the $^{173}mathrm{Yb}$ nucleus was reported from HFS measurements in neutral ${}^{173}mathrm{Yb}$ [PRA 87, 012512 (2013)], and is four orders of magnitude larger than the nuclear theory prediction. Considering this substantial discrepancy between the spectroscopically extracted value and nuclear theory, here we propose to use an alternative system to resolve this tension, a singly charged ion of the same $^{173}mathrm{Yb}$ isotope. Utilizing the substantial suite of tools developed around $mathrm{Yb}^+$ for quantum information applications, we propose to extract nuclear octupole and hexadecapole moments from measuring hyperfine splittings in the extremely long lived first excited state ($4f^{13}(^2!F^{o})6s^2$, $J=7/2$) of $^{173}mathrm{Yb}^+$. We present results of atomic structure calculations in support of the proposed measurements.

The odd isotopologues of ytterbium monohydroxide, $^{171,173}$YbOH, have been identified as promising molecules in which to measure parity (P) and time reversal (T) violating physics. Here we characterize the $tilde{A}^{2}Pi_{1/2}(0,0,0)-tilde{X}^2Si
gma^+(0,0,0)$ band near 577 nm for these odd isotopologues. Both laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) excitation spectra of a supersonic molecular beam sample and absorption spectra of a cryogenic buffer-gas cooled sample were recorded. Additionally, a novel spectroscopic technique based on laser-enhanced chemical reactions is demonstrated and utilized in the absorption measurements. This technique is especially powerful for disentangling congested spectra. An effective Hamiltonian model is used to extract the fine and hyperfine parameters for the $tilde{A}^{2}Pi_{1/2}(0,0,0)$ and $tilde{X}^2Sigma^+(0,0,0)$ states. A comparison of the determined $tilde{X}^2Sigma^+(0,0,0)$ hyperfine parameters with recently predicted values (M. Denis, et al., J. Chem. Phys. $bf{152}$, 084303 (2020), K. Gaul and R. Berger, Phys. Rev. A $bf{101}$, 012508 (2020), J. Liu et al., J. Chem. Phys. $bf{154}$, 064110 (2021)) is made. The measured hyperfine parameters provide experimental confirmation of the computational methods used to compute the P,T-violating coupling constants $W_d$ and $W_M$, which correlate P,T-violating physics to P,T-violating energy shifts in the molecule. The dependence of the fine and hyperfine parameters of the $tilde{A}^{2}Pi_{1/2}(0,0,0)$ and $tilde{X}^2Sigma^+(0,0,0)$ states for all isotopologues of YbOH are discussed and a comparison to isoelectronic YbF is made.
Whereas in the familiar Kondo effect the exchange interaction is dipolar, it can also be multipolar, as has been realized in a recent experiment. Here we study multipolar Kondo effect in a Fermi gas of cold $^{173}$Yb atoms. Making use of different A
C polarizability of the electronic ground state Yb($^{1}$S$_{0}$) and the long-lived metastable state Yb$^{*}$($^{3}$P$_{2}$), it is suggested that the latter atoms can be localized and serve as a dilute concentration of magnetic impurities while the former ones remain itinerant. The exchange mechanism between the itinerant Yb and the localized Yb$^{*}$ atoms is analyzed and shown to be antiferromagnetic. The quadruple and octuple interactions act to enhance the Kondo temperature $T_K$ that is found to be experimentally accessible. The bare exchange Hamiltonian needs to be decomposed into dipole ($d$), quadruple ($q$) and octuple ($o$) interactions in order to retain its form under renormalization group (RG) analysis, in which the corresponding exchange constants ($lambda_{mathrm{d}}$, $lambda_{mathrm{q}}$ and $lambda_{mathrm{o}}$) flow independently. Numerical solution of the RG scaling equations reveals a few finite fixed points, indicating an over-screening, which suggests a non-Fermi liquid phase. The impurity contribution to the magnetic susceptibility is calculated in the weak coupling regime (${T}gg{T}_{K}$).
We provide an up to date summary of the theory contributions to the 2S-2P Lamb shift and the fine structure of the 2P state in the muonic helium ion $(mathrm{mu^4He})^+$. This summary serves as the basis for the extraction of the alpha particle charg
e radius from the muonic helium Lamb shift measurements at the Paul Scherrer Institute, Switzerland. Individual theory contributions needed for a charge radius extraction are compared and compiled into a consistent summary. The influence of the alpha particle charge distribution on the elastic two-photon exchange is studied to take into account possible model-dependencies of the energy levels on the electric form factor of the nucleus. We also discuss the theory uncertainty which enters the extraction of the $mathrm{^3He-^4He}$ isotope shift from the muonic measurements. The theory uncertainty of the extraction is much smaller than a present discrepancy between previous isotope shift measurements. This work completes our series of $n=2$ theory compilations in light muonic atoms which we have performed already for muonic hydrogen, deuterium, and helium-3 ions.
A recent inelastic neutron scattering experiment on $mathrm{Yb}_2 mathrm{Ti}_2 mathrm{O}_7$ uncovers an unusual scattering continuum in the spin excitation spectrum despite the splayed ferromagnetic order in the ground state. While there exist well d
efined spin wave excitations at high magnetic fields, the one magnon modes and the two magnon continuum start to strongly overlap upon decreasing the field, and eventually they become the scattering continuum at zero field. Motivated by these observations, we investigate the possible emergence of a magnetically ordered ground state with fractionalized excitations in the spin model with the exchange parameters determined from two previous experiments. Using the fermionic parton mean field theory, we show that the magnetically ordered state with fractionalized excitations can arise as a stable mean field ground state in the presence of sufficiently strong quantum fluctuations. The spin excitation spectrum in such a ground state is computed and shown to have the scattering continuum. Upon increasing the magnetic field, the fractionalized magnetically ordered state is suppressed, and is eventually replaced by the conventional magnetically ordered phase at high fields, which is consistent with the experimental data. We discuss further implications of these results to the experiments and possible improvements on the theoretical analysis.
We report on observations and modeling of interspecies magnetic Feshbach resonances in dilute ultracold mixtures of open-shell alkali-metal $^6$Li and closed-shell $^{173}$Yb atoms with temperatures just above quantum degeneracy for both fermionic sp
ecies. Resonances are located by detecting magnetic-field-dependent atom loss due to three-body recombination. We resolve closely-located resonances that originate from a weak separation-dependent hyperfine coupling between the electronic spin of $^6$Li and the nuclear spin of $^{173}$Yb, and confirm their magnetic field spacing by ab initio electronic-structure calculations. Through quantitative comparisons of theoretical atom-loss profiles and experimental data at various temperatures between 1 $mu$K and 20 $mu$K, we show that three-body recombination in fermionic mixtures has a $p$-wave Wigner threshold behavior leading to characteristic asymmetric loss profiles. Such resonances can be applied towards the formation of ultracold doublet ground-state molecules and quantum simulation of superfluid $p$-wave pairing.
