Generalized soluble groups of finite co-central rank

Eine Gruppe G hat endlichen Prüferrang (bzw. Ko-zentralrang) kleiner gleich r, wenn für jede endlich erzeugte Gruppe H gilt: H (bzw. H modulo seinem Zentrum) ist r-erzeugbar. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden, soweit möglich, die bekannten Sätze über Gruppen von endlichem Prüferrang (kurz X-Gruppen), auf die wesentlich größere Klasse der Gruppen mit endlichem Ko-zentralrang (kurz R-Gruppen) verallgemeinert.Für lokal nilpotente R-Gruppen, welche torsionsfrei oder p-Gruppen sind, wird gezeigt, dass die Zentrumsfaktorgruppe eine X-Gruppe sein muss. Es folgt, dass Hyperzentralität und lokale Nilpotenz für R-Gruppen identische Bediungungen sind. Analog hierzu sind R-Gruppen genau dann lokal auflösbar, wenn sie hyperabelsch sind. Zentral für die Strukturtheorie hyperabelscher R-Gruppen ist die Tatsache, dass solche Gruppen eine aufsteigende Normalreihe abelscher X-Gruppen besitzen. Es wird eine Sylowtheorie für periodische hyperabelsche R-Gruppen entwickelt. Für torsionsfreie hyperabelsche R-Gruppen wird deren Auflösbarkeit bewiesen. Des weiteren sind lokal endliche R-Gruppen fast hyperabelsch. Für R-Gruppen fallen sehr große Gruppenklassen mit den fast hyperabelschen Gruppen zusammen. Hierzu wird der Begriff der Sektionsüberdeckung eingeführt und gezeigt, dass R-Gruppen mit fast hyperabelscher Sektionsüberdeckung fast hyperabelsch sind.

Nuclear charge radius determination of 7,10 Be and the one-neutron halo nucleus 11 Be

The only nuclear model independent method for the determination of nuclear charge radii of short-lived radioactive isotopes is the measurement of the isotope shift. For light elements (Z < 10) extremely high accuracy in experiment and theory is required and was only reached for He and Li so far. The nuclear charge radii of the lightest elements are of great interest because they have isotopes which exhibit so-called halo nuclei. Those nuclei are characterized by a a very exotic nuclear structure: They have a compact core and an area of less dense nuclear matter that extends far from this core. Examples for halo nuclei are 6^He, 8^He, 11^Li and 11^Be that is investigated in this thesis. Furthermore these isotopes are of interest because up to now only for such systems with a few nucleons the nuclear structure can be calculated ab-initio. In the Institut für Kernchemie at the Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz two approaches with different accuracy were developed. The goal of these approaches was the measurement of the isotope shifts between (7,10,11)^Be^+ and 9^Be^+ in the D1 line. The …first approach is laser spectroscopy on laser cooled Be^+ ions that are trapped in a linear Paul trap. The accessible accuracy should be in the order of some 100 kHz. In this thesis two types of linear Paul traps were developed for this purpose. Moreover, the peripheral experimental setup was simulated and constructed. It allows the efficient deceleration of fast ions with an initial energy of 60 keV down to some eV and an effcient transport into the ion trap. For one of the Paul traps the ion trapping could already be demonstrated, while the optical detection of captured 9^Be^+ ions could not be completed, because the development work was delayed by the second approach. The second approach uses the technique of collinear laser spectroscopy that was already applied in the last 30 years for measuring isotope shifts of plenty of heavier isotopes. For light elements (Z < 10), it was so far not possible to reach the accuracy that is required to extract information about nuclear charge radii. The combination of collinear laser spectroscopy with the most modern methods of frequency metrology …finally permitted the …first-time determination of the nuclear charge radii of (7,10)^Be and the one neutron halo nucleus 11^Be at the COLLAPS experiment at ISOLDE/ CERN. In the course of the work reported in this thesis it was possible to measure the absolute transition frequencies and the isotope shifts in the D1 line for the Be isotopes mentioned above with an accuracy of better than 2 MHz. Combination with the most recent calculations of the mass effect allowed the extraction of the nuclear charge radii of (7,10,11)^Be with an relative accuracy better than 1%. The nuclear charge radius decreases from 7^Be continuously to 10^Be and increases again for 11^Be. This result is compared with predictions of ab-initio nuclear models which reproduce the observed trend. Particularly the "Greens Function Monte Carlo" and the "Fermionic Molecular Dynamic" model show very good agreement.
