“…That result is very impressive for the fact that the short half-life does not leave much time for the collection, preparation and actual measurement of the mass. Indeed, 74 Rb is the shortest-lived species to ever be investigated by Penning trap mass spectrometry [27]. In Fig.…”

In the past three years, the sensitivity and the performance of the Penning trap mass spectrometer ISOLTRAP have been enhanced significantly. These improvements, which range from technical developments to systematic studies of the various factors contributing to the uncertainty of the final mass result, now allow mass measurements of short-lived radionuclides with half-lives of less than 100 ms and with a precision of better than 10 −8 . Using a newly developed carbon cluster ion source, ISOLTRAP can perform absolute mass measurements relative to the microscopic mass standard 12 C. These developments are reviewed as pertaining to the extension of ISOLTRAP mass measurements to higher precision and shorter half-lives and to molecular mass measurements.

“…Penning traps are presently the most accurate mass spectrometers [4][5][6][7]. The high accuracy that can be achieved with these devices, now approaching relative uncertainties of 10 −10 , is due to the long storage time and the confinement of ions in a small volume in well-defined electric and magnetic fields.…”
