Advanced Laser-Photoionization Scheme of Separation of Heavy Isotopes in the Gases Separator Devices

An effective approach to determining the parameters of the optimal schemes of the method of laser selective photoionization of atoms (elements and isotopes) with finite ionization due to collisions, ionization by a pulsed electric field, ionization through high (Rydberg) states and narrow autoionization resonances for the separation of heavy isotopes has been proposed. in gas separator devices. On the basis of the theory of optimal control and previously developed quantum models for calculating the characteristics of elementary atomic processes, optimization models of isotope separation are numerically implemented in the scheme of selective laser photoionization with ionization due to collisions in gas mixtures, ionization by a pulsed electric field, autoionization, etc. etc. The data obtained quantitatively confirm the promise of the method of laser photoionization with finite ionization due to collisions, ionization by a pulsed electric field, ionization through high-lying (Rydberg) states and narrow autoionization resonances and give a set of parameters for the desired optimal schemes, in particular, the laser pulse optimal shape for rubidium and uranium isotopes.
