The ETAP - Atomic Physics Homepage (Prof. G. Werth)

Welcome to the official homepage of Professor Werth's group at the Physics Department of the Johannes-Gutenberg-University at Mainz / Germany. We perform different experiments in the field of atomic physics and quantum optics. We investigate for example basic properties of atomic ions such as lifetimes and g-factors. Our main tool for precise measurements are Paul and Penning traps in which ions can be strored under well controlled conditions for very long times. The properties of the involved traps are also studied. On this site we want to provide basic information about our experiments and a list of group members that you may contact to get more details.

Currently the following experiments are being performed:

 
• Laser Spectroscopy and more on Calcium Ions
• g-Factor of the Bound Electron
• Nonlinear Resonances in Paul and Penning traps
• g_j- and g_i-Factor Measurement on Barium
• Europium
