A study of the 1s(2)2s2p (3)p(2)-(3)p(1) fine-structure transition in beryllium-like argon is planned on the Oxford electron beam ion trap (EBIT), using laser-induced resonance. This transition wavelength was measured previously as 594.373(4) nm, which is accessible using a dye laser. The ions are produced and excited in the EBIT and are confined during laser irradiation using the magnetic trapping mode. The P-3(2) level population is depleted by the laser and by subsequently monitoring the emitted fluorescence a laser resonance signal can be obtained.
