Zusammenfassung: | The WITCH experiment (Weak Interaction Trap for CHarged particles) will search for exotic
interactions by investigating the - angular correlation via the measurement of the recoil energy spectrum
after -decay. As a first step the recoil ions from the −-decay of 124In stored in a Penning trap have been
detected. The evidence for the detection of recoil ions is shown and the properties of the ion cloud that
forms the radioactive source for the experiment in the Penning trap are presented. |
