Abstract We have measured the Balmer-series x-rays of kaonic 4 He atoms using novel large-area silicon drift x-ray detectors in order to study the low-energy K ¯ -nucleus strong interaction. The energy of the 3 d → 2 p transition was determined to be 6467 ± 3 ( stat ) ± 2 ( syst ) eV . The resulting strong-interaction energy-level shift is in agreement with theoretical calculations, thus eliminating a long-standing discrepancy between theory and experiment.

The Balmer-series X-rays of kaonic helium-4 have been re-measured with a projected goal of determining the 2p-level strong-interaction shift to a precision better than a few electron volts. Preliminary results indicate that the shift must be much smaller than the current world average of −43 ± 8 eV.

The most recent pionic—hydrogen experiment marks the completion of a whole series of measurements, the main goal of which was to provide conclusive data on pion—nucleon interaction at threshold for comparison with calculations from Chiral perturbation theory. The precision achieved for hadronic shift and broadening of 0.2% and 2%, respectively, became possible by comprehensive studies of cascade effects in hydrogen and other light exotic atoms including results from the last years of LEAR operation. In order to obtain optimum conditions for the Bragg crystal spectrometer, the cyclotron trap II has been used to provide a suitable X—ray source. To characterize the bent crystal spectrometer, the cyclotron trap has been modified to operate as an electron—cyclotron resonance source, which produces with high intensity narrow X‐ray transitions in the few keV range originating from highly charged ions.

Trapping molecular ions that have been sympathetically cooled with laser-cooled atomic ions is a useful platform for exploring cold ion chemistry. We designed and characterized a new experimental apparatus for probing chemical reaction dynamics between molecular cations and neutral radicals at temperatures below 1 K. The ions are trapped in a linear quadrupole radio-frequency trap and sympathetically cooled by co-trapped, laser-cooled, atomic ions. The ion trap is coupled to a time-of-flight mass spectrometer to readily identify product ion species, as well as to accurately determine trapped ion numbers. We discuss, and present in detail, the design of this ion trap time-of-flight mass spectrometer, as well as the electronics required for driving the trap and mass spectrometer. Furthermore, we measure the performance of this system, which yields mass resolutions of m/∆m ≥ 1100 over a wide mass range, and discuss its relevance for future measurements in chemical reaction kinetics and dynamics.Trapping molecular ions that have been sympathetically cooled with laser-cooled atomic ions is a useful platform for exploring cold ion chemistry.

The (3p — 1s) X-ray transition to the muonic hydrogen ground state was measured with a highresolution crystal spectrometer. The assumption of a statistical population of the hyperfine levels of the muonic hydrogen ground state was directly confirmed by the experiment and measured values for the hyperfine splitting can be reported. The measurement supplements studies on line broadening effects induced by Coulomb de-excitation hindering the direct extraction of the pion-nucleon scattering lengths from pionic hydrogen and deuterium X-ray lines.

We have measured the Balmer-series x-rays of kaonic 4He atoms using large-area silicon drift x-ray detectors (SDDs) in order to study the low-energy -nucleus strong interaction. The energy of the 3d → 2p transition was determined to be 6467 ± 3(stat) ± 2(syst) eV. The resulting strong-interaction energy-level shift is in agreement with theoretical calculations, thus eliminating a long-standing discrepancy between theory and experiment.
