ISOLTRAPs 2008 harvest — •Martin Breitenfeldt — Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Universität, Greifswald, Germany

With ISOLTRAP [1] at ISOLDE/CERN mass measurements on exotic nuclides are performed down to an accuracy below Δm/m=10⁻⁸. The obtained mass values are of importance for a number of applications, among others nuclear structure studies, test of mass models, and nucleosynthesis calculations. Recent measurements performed at ISOLTRAP help to examine the halo character of ¹⁷Ne [2] and the restoration of the neutron-shell gap at N=82 [3]. In addition, the determination of the mass of ⁸¹Zn [4] allowed detailed nucleosynthesis calulations in the vicinity of the waiting-point nuclide ⁸⁰Zn. Furthermore, for the first time a new isotope was discovered in a Penning trap, namely ²²⁹Rn [5]. The new mass values of ^223−229Rn as well as of ^136−146Xe are entering in systematic δ V_pn studies of the interaction between the valence protons and valence neutrons.
