Atomic physics of highly charged ions in an electron beam ion trap

Creators

  • 1. Lawrence Livermore National Lab, CA (United States)

Description

Two electron beam ion traps are in use at LLNL for the purpose of studying the properties of very highly charged ions and their interactions with electrons. This paper reviews the operation of the traps and discusses recent experiments in three areas: precision transition energy measurements in the limit of very high ion charge, dielectronic recombination measurements for the He-like isoelectronic sequence, and measurements of x-ray polarization
