RESUMEN
The Ion Source Hydrogen positive is a 2.7 GHz off-resonance microwave discharge ion source. It uses four coils to generate an axial magnetic field in the plasma chamber around 0.1 T that exceeds the ECR resonance field. A new magnetic system was designed as a combination of the four coils and soft iron in order to increase the reliability of the source. The description of the simulations of the magnetic field and the comparison with the magnetic measurements are presented. Moreover, results of the initial commissioning of the source for extraction voltage until 50 kV will be reported.
RESUMEN
We present an experimental value for the g factor of the electron bound in hydrogenlike oxygen, which is found to be g(expt)=2.000 047 025 4 (15)(44). The experiment was performed on a single 16O7+ ion stored in a Penning trap. For the first time, the expected line shape of the g-factor resonance is calculated which is essential for minimizing the systematic uncertainties. The measurement agrees within 1.1 sigma with the predicted theoretical value g(theory)=2.000 047 020 2 (6). It represents a stringent test of bound-state quantum electrodynamics to a 0.25% level. Assuming the validity of the underlying theory, a value for the electron mass is obtained: m(e)=0.000 548 579 909 6 (4) u. This value agrees with our earlier determination on and allows a combination of both values which is about 4 times more precise than the currently accepted one.
