Ion traps have long been recognised as superb precision tools for fundamental physics research. Thanks to their extraordinary versatility, they have repeatedly opened up new science opportunities which in turn have led to remarkable advancements in ion-trap technology. As one example in the field of rare isotope science,...
Progress towards the EDM3 instrument at FRIB: A tool for studying radioactive molecules embedded inside cryogenic solids

The study of radioactive molecules receives increasing attention due to their enhanced sensitivity to fundamental symmetry violations and Beyond Standard Model...
The NEXT collaboration is pursuing a phased program to search for neutrinoless double beta decay of 136Xe using high pressure xenon gas time projection chambers. In addition to the capabilities of precise calorimetry and topological imaging, xenon gas detectors also offer a further opportunity: the plausible implementation of barium daughter ion tagging. In this talk I will present advances...
A system is being developed to extract from liquid xenon into vacuum and subsequently identify the Xe-136 double-beta decay daughter isotope Ba-136. The system will consist of several devices starting with a capillary to transport the ion from liquid into a gas volume followed by a RF-only ion funnel to extract the ion to vacuum while recapturing the Xe gas for future use. Afterwards, the ion...
