Upgrades to the collinear laser spectroscopy experiment at the IGISOL
2020
Abstract We give an overview of recent changes to the collinear laser spectroscopy beamline in the IGISOL laboratory. We present a new data acquisition system, commissioning of a newly installed charge exchange cell, and cooler-voltage calibration measurements. Currently ongoing modifications to the RFQ cooler-buncher are also discussed.
Image charge shift in high-precision Penning traps
2019
An ion in a Penning trap induces image charges on the surfaces of the trap electrodes. These induced image charges are used to detect the ion's motional frequencies, but they also create an additional electric field, which shifts the free-space cyclotron frequency typically at a relative level of several ${10}^{\ensuremath{-}11}$. In various high-precision Penning-trap experiments, systematics and their uncertainties are dominated by this so-called image charge shift (ICS). The ICS is investigated in this work by a finite-element simulation and by a dedicated measurement technique. Theoretical and experimental results are in excellent agreement. The measurement is using singly stored ions a…
