Abstract Quantum electrodynamics (QED) is one of the most fundamental theories physics and has been shown to be in excellent agreement with experimental results 1–5 . In particular, measurements electron’s magnetic moment (or g factor) highly charged ions Penning traps provide a stringent probe for QED, which allows testing standard model strongest electromagnetic fields 6 When studying differences between isotopes, many common QED contributions cancel owing identical electron configuration,...

Inner-shell electrons naturally sense the electric field close to nucleus, which can reach extreme values beyond 1015 V cm-1 for innermost electrons1. Especially in few-electron, highly charged ions, interaction with electromagnetic fields be accurately calculated within quantum electrodynamics (QED), rendering these ions good candidates test validity of QED strong fields. Consequently, their Lamb shifts were intensively studied past several decades2,3. Another approach is measurement...

Abstract The determination of the effective electron neutrino mass via kinematic analysis beta and capture spectra is considered to be model-independent since it relies on energy momentum conservation. At same time precise description expected spectrum goes beyond simple phase space term. In particular for processes, many-body electron-electron interactions lead additional structures besides main resonances in calorimetrically measured spectra. A $$^{163}$$ <mml:math...

Magnetic moments of bound-electron systems are a sensitive tool for testing fundamental interactions. The g factors lithium-like ions have been rigorously studied in recent years, enabling insights into the relativistic interelectronic effects. In this work, we present -factor measurement tin, accurate to 0.5 parts per billion, as well ab initio theoretical calculations that include an advanced treatment interaction.
