Precision measurements of this correlation parameter and, inextricably, the Fierz interference parameter, are a sensitive probe of physics beyond the standard model. Using off-line ion sources, the TAMUTRAP facility has been commissioned by demonstrating the ability to manipulate the trapped-ion motions as well as to perform precision mass measurements. Our novel cylindrical Penning trap – the world's largest – differs from typical designs in two key aspects: the electrode structure has an 180-mm inner diameter and an overall length of 334.89 mm leading to a uniquely small length/radius ratio l/r = 3.72; and we do not use the long end cap approximation, instead our short endcap electrodes are closed and capable of being placed at an arbitrary potential. This geometry is optimized for observing β-delayed proton decays, but is also well suited for other in-trap and post-trap precision decay experiments. In addition to presenting an overview of the TAMUTRAP facility, we demonstrate that our unique Penning trap is able to measure masses with a precision similar to typical trap designs. The World's largest Penning trap with an inner diameter of 180 mm with a unique length/radius ratio of l/r0=3.72. The facility allow to perform in-trap and post-trap decay experiments. It has been demonstrated that one can use a single Penning trap system to purify the trapped ion bunch and perform mass measurements. Mass measurement precision of 10-8 has been reached for stable isotopes 23Na, 85,87Rb and 133Cs. Ion motions were manipulated by implementing different excitation schemes.
