Abstract
The study of ions and their interactions by means of storage devices which hold them for long periods encompasses a broad range of experimental effort. In the area of collision studies, treated by G. Dunn1 at the 1974 International Conference on Atomic Physics (ICAP), it includes electron-ion recombination, spin and charge exchange, photo-dissociation, and ion-molecule reactions among others. Another broad area, the original emphasis of the technique, is the radio-frequency spectroscopy of stored ions. This area was pioneered by H. Dehmelt and his collaborators and was reported on at the first ICAP in 19682. The range of possible experiments here includes the traditional domain of rf spectroscopy of atomic and molecular species; e.g. magnetic moments, hyperfine structure and fine structure. New possibilities include the use of lasers as optical pumping sources and, beyond the rf frequency range, one expects two-photon laser spectroscopy on stored ions to emerge3. Closely allied to the above, but distinguished by their uniqueness and high degree of refinement, are the experiments of the U. Washington group to measure the anomalous magnetic moment of a single electron4.
