Highly charged ions are excellent candidates to test fundamental theories such as bound-state quantum electrodynamics (BS-QED). The strong electromagnetic fields which can be found in those systems can shift the energies of fine structure or even hyperfine structure transitions into the optical regime. Measuring such transitions constitutes a stringent test on BS-QED including relativistic many electron calculations and nuclear contributions.
We present a novel method that does not rely on any fluorescence signal which allows to find straight forward a transition by using the continuous Stern Gerlach effect. Using this method we have recently performed laser spectroscopy of the magnetic dipole (M1) 2p 2P1/2 − 2P3/2 fine structure transition in 40Ar13+ stored in a cryogenic Penning-trap system of the ALPHATRAP g-factor experiment at the Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik. Results of this will be presented.
