Abstract
Nuclear charge radii of short-lived isotopes can be probed in a nuclear-model independent way via isotope shift measurements. For this purpose a novel technique was developed at GSI, Darmstadt. It combines two-photon laser spectroscopy in the 2s-3s electronic transition of lithium, resonance ionization, and detection via quadrupole mass spectrometry. In this way an accuracy of 5e-5 which is necessary for the extraction of nuclear charge radii, and an overall detection efficiency of 1e-4 is reached. This allowed an isotope shift measurement of Li-11 \nfor the first time at the TRIUMF facility in Vancouver. Additionally, uncertainties in the isotope shift for all other lithium isotopes were reduced by about a factor of four compared to previous measurements at GSI. Results were combined with recent theoretical mass shift calculations in three-electron systems and root-mean-square nuclear charge radii of all lithium isotopes, particulary of the two-neutron halo nucleus Li-11, were determined. Obtained charge radii decrease continuously from Li-6 to Li-9, while a strong increase between Li-9 and Li-11 is observed. This is compared to predictions of various nuclear models and it is found that a multicluster model gives the best overall agreement. Within this model, the increase in charge radius between Li-9 and Li-11is to a large extend caused by intrinsic excitation of the Li-9-like core while the neutron-halo correlation contributes only to a small extend.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
