Abstract
A brief review is presented of recent work with the Precision Penning Trap Mass Spectrometer, formerly at MIT, now at Florida State University. This includes atomic mass comparisons using single trapped ions; mass comparisons using two simultaneously trapped ions alternated between large and small cyclotron radii; and measurement of the dipole moment of a molecular ion using the polarizability-induced shift in cyclotron frequency.
