Production and storage of polarized H$_2$, D$_2$, and HD molecules
2018
The investigation of the recombination of nuclear polarized hydrogen and deuterium atoms into polarized molecules gives new insights into different fields in physics and chemistry. On the one hand, the measurement of the polarization preservation during the recombination process itself allows one the observation of a new parameter during the chemical processes on different surfaces and enables the production of hyper-polarized molecules. On the other hand, the molecular polarization measured as a function of the imposed external magnetic field delivers the coupling forces of the nuclear spins and the rotational magnetic moments of the molecules as well as the coupling between the two nuclear spins themselves. This knowledge allows one to optimize storage-cell gas targets for coming accelerators experiments or to produce and handle polarized fuel for future fusion reactors.
