- Abstract summary: We present data for four metastable state clear-out transitions between 399 nm and 412 nm for all even long-lived isotopes of Yb$+$.
Two alternative transitions simplify the experimental setup by removing the need for infrared optics to cool and manipulate Yb$+$.
We also present data for the transitions $2 $D$_3/2$ at399 nm, and $2 $D$_3/2$ at 410 nm including decay branching ratios of the excited states.

- Abstract: We present spectroscopic data for four metastable state clear-out transitions between 399 nm and 412 nm for all even long-lived isotopes of Yb$^+$ as well as their hyperfine structure in $^{171}$Yb$^+$. The strong $^2 \rm{D}_{3/2} \rightarrow {}^1[1/2]_{1/2}$ transition at 412 nm represents an attractive alternative for the standard 935 nm repumper used in cooling and trapping experiments, while the transition to the $^3[3/2]_{3/2}$ state at 411 nm clears out the $^2 $F$_{7/2}$ state, for which typically 638 nm or 760 nm are used. These two alternative transitions simplify the experimental setup by removing the need for infrared optics to cool and manipulate Yb$^+$ and may be of particular interest when considering integrated photonics solutions. We also present data for the transitions $^2 $D$_{3/2} \rightarrow {}^3[1/2]_{3/2}$ at 399 nm, and $^2 $D$_{3/2} \rightarrow {}^1[5/2]_{5/2}$ at 410 nm including decay branching ratios of the excited states.

We propose a new framework of variance-reduced Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) methods for sampling from an $L$-smooth and $m$-strongly log-concave distribution.
We show that the unbiased gradient estimators, including SAGA and SVRG, based HMC methods achieve highest gradient efficiency with small batch size.
Experimental results on both synthetic and real-world benchmark data show that our new framework significantly outperforms the full gradient and gradient HMC approaches.
