Re-trapping and cooling of highly-charged

• Presently, a trapping system for cooling highly-charged ions (HCI) is being set up at AlbaNova at Stockholm University. The experiment aims at production of low temperature (emittance) HCI at very low energy. HCI are extracted from the new Stockholm EBIT (S-EBIT) before evaporative cooling is applied in a Penning trap. In the future the cooled ions will be injected into the precision trap of the high-precision mass spectrometer SMILETRAP II. In first tests the emittance of trapped ions was measured and it was shown that highly and low-charged ions could be simultaneously stored
