QED experiments with few-electron very heavy ions
Description
Possible tests of QED in heavy atoms are described with special reference to those which could be performed at the 8 Tm synchrotron facility. These include tests of QED self-energy in a strong Coulomb field, QED theory for magnetic moments in a strong Coulomb field and the origin of the positron peak. Suggested experiments involve measurement of hyperfine structure and Lamb Shift in helium-like and lithium-like uranium and thallium atoms, ion trapping and colinear and colliding heavy ion beams. Material is presented in rough outline form
