To achieve a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental properties of nature, high-precision experiments with trapped charged particles are one of the most promising methods. In this experiment, the magnetic moments, i.e. g-factors, of the bound electrons for lithium-like 40Ca and 48Ca ions in the medium Z region (Z=20) have been measured for the first time with a relative uncertainty of 7·10−10, giving rise to a stringent test of the isotope effect. We determine the bound-state electron magnetic moment by measuring the ratio of the electron spin-precession frequency and the ion’s cyclotron frequency1,2 in a cryogenic Penning-trap apparatus. The final result is obtained by combining our results with state-of-the-art QED calculations and an independent Penning-trap mass measurement. In the next step, hydrogen-like 40,48Ca19+ will be studied. The comparison with the lithium-like system allows us to separate nuclear and inter-electronic effects. Furthermore, a novel trap system is under development which will push the achievable precision into the 10−12 regime and thus will open new possibilities for the determination of fundamental constants.
