Measurement of the two-loop lamb shift in lithiumlike U89+.

Using the SuperEBIT electron beam ion trap, we have measured the 2s(1/2)-2p(1/2) transitions in U88+ and U89+. The measured value of 280.645 +/- 0.015 eV for Li-like U89+ improves the available precision by nearly an order of magnitude and establishes a new benchmark for testing the total QED contribution to the transition energy within a fractional accuracy of 3.6 x 10(-4). We infer a value for the 2s two-loop Lamb shift in U89+ of -0.23 eV, from which we estimate a value of -1.27 eV for the 1s two-loop Lamb shift in U91+.

Soft-x-ray spectra of highly charged Kr ions in an electron beam ion trap.

Systematic variation of the electron-beam energy in the EBIT-II electron beam ion trap has been employed to produce soft-x-ray spectra (20-75 A) of Kr with well-defined maximum charge states ranging from Cu- to Al-like ions. Guided by large-scale relativistic atomic structure calculations, the strongest lines have been identified with Delta n=1 (n=3 to n(')=4) transitions from Ni- to P-like ions (Kr(8+)-Kr(21+)), as well as a number of 3p-4d and 3d-5f transitions.
