At Central Michigan University, we are developing a high-precision Penning trap mass spectrometer (CHIP-TRAP) for precise mass measurements with stable and long-lived isotopes. Ions will be produced using external ion sources and then transported to the Penning trap at low energy using electrostatic ion optics. Ion sources that will be utilized with CHIP-TRAP include a laser ablation ion source (LAS)...
Among the wide energy range of β decays, there can exist decays with Q values as low as a few hundred eV. These decays can occur when the parent decays to a excited state in the daughter nucleus. Such decays have been called “ultra-low” Q value β decays. Their application is mainly twofold: (1) they are of interest as potential candidates for neutrino mass determination experiments, and (2) they provide...
