Quadruply-ionized barium as a candidate for a high-accuracy optical clock

October 23, 2020
Author(s)
Kyle Beloy, Vladimir A. Dzuba, Samuel Brewer
We identify Ba$^4+}$ (Te-like) as a promising candidate for a high-accuracy optical clock. The lowest-lying electronic states are part of a $^3P_J$ fine structure manifold with anomalous energy ordering, being non-monotonic in $J$. We propose a clock based
