Abstract
After an extended upgrading period at the Experimental Storage Ring (ESR) of the GSI in Darmstadt, an experiment on recombination of lithium-like uranium has been carried out. A 107.1 MeV/u U89+ beam with up to 500 μA effective current was stored and cooled. In addition to measurements of radiative recombination (RR) and dielectronic recombination (DR) with high energy resolution in the range of 0–90 eV, the diagnostic properties of DR have been utilized to characterize the new cooler setup. Preliminary experimental results for the 1s22p3/25ℓj(j=3/2,5/2) resonance manifolds are presented and compared with theoretical predictions.
