Abstract
For spectroscopy, the electron beam ion trap (EBIT) is of special interest, because it provides a cloud of highly charged ions that is confined to a small volume, at very low particle density, at a relatively low temperature, and without any net velocity in the laboratory rest frame. These conditions are favourable for observations at high spectral resolution and wavelength accuracy. Examples from recent work at Livermore comprise extreme ultraviolet and soft-X-ray spectra. A time-resolving multi-pixel microcalorimeter furthermore permits the study of time-dependent plasma phenomena and atomic lifetimes. Lifetime measurements at a heavy-ion storage ring can be combined with EBIT measurements to clarify isoelectronic behaviour.
