Abstract.

The Phase-Imaging Ion-Cyclotron-Resonance (PI-ICR) technique has been commissioned at the JYFLTRAP double Penning trap mass spectrometer. This technique is based on projecting the ion motion in the Penning trap onto a position-sensitive multichannel-plate ion detector. Mass measurements of stable 85 Rb \( ^{+}\) and 87 Rb \( ^{+}\) ions with well-known mass values show that relative uncertainties \( \Delta m/m \leq 7\cdot 10^{-10}\) are possible to reach with the PI-ICR technique at JYFLTRAP. The significant improvement both in resolving power and in precision compared to the conventional Time-of-Flight Ion Cyclotron Resonance technique will enable measurements of close-lying isomeric states and of more exotic isotopes as well as ultra-high precision measurements required, e.g., for neutrino physics. In addition, a new phase-dependent cleaning method based on the differences in the accumulated cyclotron motion phases has been demonstrated with short-lived 127 In \( ^{+}\) and 127m In \( ^{+}\) ions.
