The Experimental Apparatus of the Muonic Helium Lamb Shift Measurement — •Beatrice Franke and the CREMA Collaboration — Max-Planck-Institute of Quantum Optics, Garching

Muonic atoms have an increased sensitivity on finite size effects of the nucleus due to the approximately 200-fold mass of the muon compared to the electron. The Lamb shift experiment of the CREMA collaboration in muonic hydrogen [1] and deuterium allowed to determine the proton radius and other nuclear properties with an improved precision compared to previously conducted measurements. As a successor experiment, the determination of the Lamb shift in the muonic helium ions mu3He+ and mu4He+ [2] will be a contribution to solving the proton radius puzzle [3] as well as the discrepancy in electronic isotope-shift measurements. In this talk, an overview of the components of the experimental apparatus is given: Details on the muon beam line, the laser scheme and the different detector systems as well as other specifics necessary to perform this high sensitivity measurement.
