Charge exchange and spectroscopy with isolated highly-charged ions
- 1. Charge exchange and spectroscopy with isolated highly-charged ions Nicholas D. Guise Samuel M. Brewer, Joseph N. Tan Quantum Measurement Division National Institute of Standards and Technology Gaithersburg, MD 20899 8 June 2012
- 2. Overview Goal Engineer highly-charged ions (HCI) of interest in metrology, astrophysics, plasma diagnostics, and collision studies q/m Basic Scheme analyzing magnet fs comb 1) Extract HCI from EBIT source ion 2) Recapture in Penning trap trap laser ions 3) Study recaptured ions -charge exchange -optical spectroscopy CX beam MCP detector EBIT (electron beam ion trap)
- 3. Permanent Magnet Penning Traps One-Magnet Trap Two-Magnet Trap • B field provided by one NdFeB magnet • B field more homogeneous near center • Magnet also functions as ring electrode • Holes in ring provide optical access • Simple construction with copper endcaps • Iron electrodes shape field profile J.N. Tan, S.M. Brewer, and N.D. Guise, Rev. Sci. Instrum. 83, 023103 (2012)

- 10. Long-Term Focus: H-like ions in Circular Rydberg States • Theory more accurate than for Electron Probability Hydrogen S states due to: Distribution • negligible interactions with the nucleus • accuracy of calculated corrections, including QED effects • |n› → |n-1› transitions are accessible to optical frequency comb nucleus: Ze+ electron state: | n,l,m › |m|=l=n-1 U.D.

- 11. New Apparatus for Low Charge States Electron gun Ion 18 mm production TOF detector region Experiment region with two-magnet Penning trap
- 12. Summary • Unitary architecture NdFeB Penning traps are used to capture and store highly charged ions extracted from the NIST EBIT. • Captured ion species include Ne10+, Ne9+, Ne8+, Ar16+, Ar15+, Ar14+, Ar13+, N7+, and Kr17+. • Ion storage times of order 1 second are limited primarily by collisions with residual gas at 300 K. • Ongoing experiments include studies of charge exchange, optical measurements of metastable lifetimes (upcoming talk by S. Brewer). • New apparatus will utilize similar NdFeB construction for a room- temperature “mini-EBIT” source, for planned spectroscopy with low-Z hydrogen-like ions.
