description

Abstract Penning traps have proven to be powerful tools for the determination of nuclear masses with high accuracy. A crucial parameter for precision mass measurements in Penning traps is the accurate determination of the magnetic-field strength. However, the magnetic field of a superconducting magnet is not constant in time, but changes due to intrinsic effects of the solenoid and external perturbations. These effects have been investigated for SHIPTRAP. Furthermore, a stabilization of the temperature in the magnet bore as well as of the pressure in the liquid-helium cryostat has been implemented. Thus, the magnetic-field related uncertainties have been reduced to 7(6)×10−11/h.
