  Hyperfine structure - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In atomic physics, hyperfine structure is a small perturbation in the energy levels (or spectra) of atoms or molecules due to the magnetic dipole-dipole interaction, arising from the interaction of the nuclear magnetic dipole with the magnetic field of the electron.
Carl Sagan and Frank Drake considered the hyperfine transition of hydrogen to be a sufficiently universal phenomenon so as to be used as a base unit of time and length on the Pioneer plaque and later Voyager Golden Record.
Typically, the hyperfine structure transition frequency of a particular isotope of caesium or rubidium atoms is used as a basis for these clocks.

In atomic physics, hyperfine structure is a petty perturbation in the muscle identicals (or spectra) of atoms or molecules due to the magnetic dipole-dipole interaction, arising from the interaction of the nuclear bewitching dipole with the bewitching tillage of the electron.
The hyperfine architecture progress can be used to fiddle with a microwave notch trickle with very gargantuan stability, repeatability 'n Q factor, which can thus be used as a ground for very very atomic clocks.
Typically, the hyperfine architecture progress iteration of a painstaking isotope of caesium or rubidium atoms is used as a ground for these clocks.

 Second - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Under the International System of Units, the second is currently defined as the duration of 9 192 631 770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium-133 atom.
With the development of the atomic clock, it was decided to use atomic clocks as the basis of the definition of the second, rather than the revolution of the Earth around the Sun.
Using a common-view measurement method based on the received signals from radio station WWV, they determined the orbital motion of the Moon about the Earth, from which the apparent motion of the Sun could be inferred, in terms of time as measured by an atomic clock.

In two-dimensional electron systems under strong magnetic fields the contact hyperfine interaction, resulting in the simultaneous spin flip of the nuclear and the electron spins (flip-flop), is severely restricted by energy conservation, since the electron spin splitting is orders of magnitudes larger than the nuclear one.
The hyperfine field, caused by the nonequilibrium nuclear spin population [61], breaks the spin symmetry of charged carriers.
Under the topologically nontrivial spatial nuclear spin distribution the hyperfine field produces an adiabatically slow time variation of the Berry phase of the electron wave function, analogous to one which emerges in standard ABE in textured mesoscopic rings [64,65] and in Aharonov-Casher effect [66].

Thinking classically, the electron moving around the nucleus has a magnetic dipole moment, as it is charged.
However, there is also hyperfine splitting for s-shell electrons which do not have an angular momentum, and then it is even stronger, as the electron probability distribution does not vanish in the nucleus.
The amount of correction to the Bohr energy levels due to hyperfine splitting of the hydrogen atom is on the order of: :

 Antiprotons probe hyperfine splitting (November 2002) - News - PhysicsWeb
Hyperfine splitting is a familiar phenomenon in atomic physics in which magnetic interactions between the nucleus and the electrons split the electronic energy levels into sublevels.
This is caused by the magnetic interaction between the orbital angular momentum of the anti-proton and the spin of the electron.
Then by firing a laser pulse into the helium the researchers were able to reduce the population of the lower level relative to the higher level by sending antiprotons in atoms lying in the lower level into atomic states from which they instantly annihilated.

 Theory Group : Hyperfine interaction
It was outlined in [1] that in two-dimensional electron systems under strong magnetic fields the contact hyperfine interaction, resulting in the simultaneous spin flip of the nuclear and the electron spins (flip-flop) (Fig.1) is severely restricted by energy conservation, since the electron spin splitting is orders of magnitudes larger than the nuclear one.
The role of the contact hyperfine interaction is to replace the external magnetic field which splits the conduction band and creates the magnetisation of the carriers.
We have suggested [17], that the hyperfine interaction between the conduction electron spins and nuclear spins may result in universal residual resistivity in clean metals at low temperatures.

 Description of Research--Gary S. Collins
Detrapping of hydrogen from vacancy complexes was observed during annealing at temperatures above room temperature and was analyzed to estimate of the binding energy of hydrogen in four different vacancy complexes using a model of diffusion in a medium with traps [43].
Relaxation that was observed in the signal of a hydrogen-decorated 3V complex in platinum [34] was attributed to 'cage' motion of the hydrogen atom or probe in the complex, with a measured activation energy of 0.34(5) eV [52].
Pressure dependence of the hyperfine field at a probe in a trivacancy complex in Ni was measured and compared with the pressure dependence measured at a defect-free substitutional site [40].

 Hyperfine Structure
The quantum number f has possible values f=j+1/2,j-1/2 since the proton is spin 1/2, and hence every energy level associated with a particular set of quantum numbers n, l, and j will be split into two levels of slightly different energy, depending on the relative orientation of the proton magnetic dipole with the electron state.
Consider first the case l=0, since the hyperfine splitting of the hydrogen atom ground state is of the most interest.
Figure 7 shows a revised version of the structure of the hydrogen atom, including the Lamb shift and hyperfine structure.

A good example would be the hyperfine structure (HFS) lines due to interaction in the internal magnetic field produced by the motion of the electrons of an atom and the spin magnetic moment of its nucleus.
While hyperfine transitions are common in the radio range (the best known is the 21-centimeter line of neutral hydrogen), at shorter wavelengths atomic hyperfine structure has seldom been resolved in emission spectra because the velocity separation between hyperfine components is proportional to wavelength.
More details can be found in the paper "Hyperfine splitting of [Al VI] 3.66-micron and the Al isotopic ratio in NGC 6302", by S. Casassus, P. J Storey, M. Barlow and P. Roche to appear in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.

I guess I have a while yet to look at the hyperfine structure of things, to appreciate the spider webs and moss, the mushrooms and weathered driftwood along some deserted beaches.
Continuing with my search for the hyperfine structure of the world I walked out across the campus headed for that wall down by the alumni office.
On Foss Hill I stopped at the observatory to look at the moss on the north wall; the growth there was not extensive and rather subtle but still worth a look and a few photos.

The M\"ossbauer spectra were recorded over a range of temperature from 40 to 296 K. The M\"ossbauer spectra showed the co-existence of a paramagnetic part with a magnetic hyperfine portion at all recorded temperatures.
Even with the distribution in the magnetic hyperfine field, the average hyperfine field follows the $(T/T_{\rm c})^{3/2}$ law.
The paramagnetic part of the hyperfine field is explained in terms of the clustering of Cr atoms.

 A Search for the Tritium Hyperfine Line from Nearby Stars
The tritium frequency is highly attractive for SETI work because the isotope is cosmically rare and the tritium hyperfine line is centered in the SETI waterhole region of the terrestrial microwave window.
The neutral tritium ground-state hyperfine transition line at 1516.701470 9064(16) MHz (Mathur et al., 1967) is centered in the SETI waterhole region of the terrestrial microwave window (Billingham and Oliver, 1973) which lies between the H and OH spectral lines.
A search centered on the tritium hyperfine line for 108 assorted astronomical objects, with emphasis on 53 nearby stars, was conducted from 28 June to 10 July 1983 using the 26-m radiotelescope at the University of California's Hat Creek Radio Observatory, located about 270 miles north of the Berkeley, California, campus.

A novel periodic spin structure induced in a two-dimensional electron gas by a periodic hyperfine field is proposed and theoretically studied.
The periodic nuclear magnetization is created, via the hyperfine electron-nuclear spin interaction, by the light induced periodic electron spin grating.
The optically excited electron spin polarization rapidly vanishes after the laser beam grating is switched off, while the inhomogeneous nuclear spin polarization remains for a sufficiently long time, which makes possible the writing and storage of information.

C hyperfine studies, together with data for protons in specific ring substituents, confirm the high asymmetry correlated with only one dominant H-bond in the A1 site of PS I, which is consistent with the structure model derived from X-ray structure (1JB0) for the ground state of the PS I protein complex.
O hyperfine tensors measured for the A1 site of PS I yield high hyperfine coupling constants but very small asymmetry for the two carbonyl groups.
O hyperfine coupling itself appears to depend on the electrostatics seen by the radical anion.

 Effect of Hyperfine Structure on Line Shape
In order to show the importance of the hyperfine structure in determining the line shape, Figure 7.13 shows the shape that the predicted line would have if the hyperfine transitions were ignored.
The effect of the hyperfine components is to reduce the absorption necessary to obtain the same column density in the model.
As a further possibility, it is interesting to note that the model which did not include the hyperfine components agrees well for the line of sight clouds.

ESR is a block-type keyword that invokes calculation of the g-tensor [95] as well as the Nuclear Magnetic Dipole Hyperfine interaction (A-tensor) [96].
In case (1), the program will also calculate and print the Nuclear Magnetic Dipole Hyperfine interaction, but the terms due to the spin-polarization density at the nucleus are absent.
For the computation of the A-tensor, the Nuclear Magnetic Dipole Hyperfine interaction, an accurate evaluation of the spin-polarization density at the nucleus is important.

use the electric dipole operator in the matrix element calculating the transition probability to move between the hyperfine states), you'll see that to first order it's simply zero or very close to that.
If you take the corrections for 2nd order it might give you some finite probability (this is why it's called a forbidden transition), but small.
Actually, in some sensitive experiments, such as very accurate atomic clocks, people use exactly these forbidden transitions, as they usually suffer much less from broadening and other noise effects, and hence if you CAN measure them you have a good and sensitive clock.
