MLLTRAP: Penning trap facility for high precision mass measurements — •Veli Kolhinen¹, Michael Bussmann¹, Dietrich Habs¹, Jürgen Neumayr¹, Ulrich Schramm², Christian Schürmann¹, Michael Sewtz¹, Jerzy Szerypo¹, and Peter Thirolf¹ — ¹Department für Physik, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, Am Coulombwall 1,85748 Garching, Germany — ²Forschungszentrum Dresden-Rossendorf, 01314 Dresden, Germany

The MLLTRAP at the Maier-Leibnitz-Laboratory (Garching) will be a new Penning trap facility designed to combine several novel technologies to decelerate, charge breed, cool, bunch and purify the reaction products and perform high-accuracy nuclear and atomic mass measurements.

The double Penning trap is now in its commissioning phase at the Maier-Leibnitz-Laboratory in Garching. In the first phase we have set up the system off-line and test it with stable Cs ions. The beam has been shot through the trap system and pulsing of the walls has successfully been tested.

This contribution will present the status of the project including results from the commissioning phase and technical details as well as future plans.
