摘要
A high-precision measurement of the (CsXe)-Cs-131-Xe-131 ground-to-ground-state electron-capture Q(EC)-value was performed using the ISOLTRAP mass spectrometer at ISOLDE/CERN. The novel PI-ICR technique allowed to reach a relative mass precision m/m of 1.4 10(-9). A mass resolving power m/m exceeding 1 10(7) was obtained in only 1s trapping time. Allowed electron-capture transitions with sub-keV or lower decay energies are of high interest for the direct determination of the (e) mass. The new measurement improves the uncertainty on the ground-to-ground-state Q(EC)-value by a factor 25 precluding the (CsXe)-Cs-131-Xe-131 pair as a feasible candidate for the direct determination of the (e) mass.
