A novel approach based on the projection of Penning-trap ion motion onto a position-sensitive detector opens door to very accurate mass measurements ppb level even for short-lived nuclides with half-lives well below second. In addition accuracy boost, new method provides superior resolving power by which low-lying isomeric states excitation energy 10-keV can be easily separated from ground state. measurement difference ^{130}Xe and ^{129}Xe has demonstrated great potential approach.
Quantum-mechanical shell effects are expected to strongly enhance nuclear binding on an "island of stability" superheavy elements. The predicted center at proton number $Z=114,120$, or $126$ and neutron $N=184$ has been substantiated by the recent synthesis new elements up $Z=118$. However location extension island stability remain vague. High-precision mass spectrometry allows direct measurement energies thus determination strength effects. Here, we present such measurements for nobelium...
Abstract The magnetic moment μ of a bound electron, generally expressed by the g -factor =− B s ħ −1 with Bohr magneton and electron’s spin, can be calculated bound-state quantum electrodynamics (BS-QED) to very high precision. recent ultra-precise experiment on hydrogen-like silicon determined this value eleven significant digits, thus allowed rigorously probe validity BS-QED. Yet, investigation one most interesting contribution -factor, relativistic interaction between electron nucleus, is...
