| Abstract | Summary form only given. The heart of the Penning trap mass spectrometer (PTMS) is a well-machined, quadrupole trap with hyperbolic surfaces of revolution formed about a common axis of symmetry. Equally as important from the point of view of precision, a strong magnetic field, aligned along this trap axis, must be highly stable and uniform. For our present solenoid, the long term drift is /spl sim/0.1-0.3 ppb/h and short-term fluctuations are <1 ppb. We are now using a quite uniform magnetic field (with B/sub 2/<2 G/cm/sup 2/). Also, a significant improvement in the X-band microwave system (multiplied up to 160 GHz) now allows us to use the relativistic mass shift (equivalent to /spl sim/-10 G/cm/sup 2/) in order to observe the electron's cyclotron frequency with a precision of /spl plusmn/5 ppb per measurement and with systematics that are expected to be at least an order of magnitude less than that obtained in our previous work. The comparison ion in this case is a fully stripped carbon atom such that the electron's atomic mass can be directly determined upon correcting for lost electrons and their binding energies. At the present time, our typical single measurement precision for the C/sup 6+/ cyclotron frequency is about /spl plusmn/1 ppb which yields a relative precision on the order of 0.2 ppb after a 24-h data-period. Altogether, the typical measurement precision of the electron/carbon comparison now exceeds 1 ppb (using about 100 h of data). To obtain m/sub p//m/sub e/, a comparison is made with the proton's atomic mass which has an accepted value with an accuracy of 0.5 ppb. Thus, an improvement in this important fundamental constant is expected to be an order of magnitude, limited only by our estimate of residual systematics. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
