Measurements of inner-shell absorption lines in highly charged ions have been performed with the portable electron beam ion trap FLASH-EBIT. It was coupled to a high-resolution monochromator at the synchrotron X-ray source BESSY II [1] to measure the resonant excitation energies of states decaying by autoionization or photon emission, which are measured by counting photoions and fluorescence photons in dependence of the X-ray energy. We compared the results with those of our own state-of-the-art relativistic configuration-interaction and multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock calculations, as well as with other recent calculations. The experimentally determined resonance energies typically have absolute precisions of about 70 meV, stringently benchmarking theory.
