The high-precision measurement of the Zeeman splitting of fine- and hyper-fine structure levels can be performed using spectroscopy techniques. The Penning trap ARTEMIS at the HITRAP facility at GSI utilises the method of laser-microwave double-resonance spectroscopy to measure the magnetic moment and to test bound-state QED calculations by g-factor measurements of heavy, highly charged ions like Ar13+ and Bi82+. Non-destructive electronic detection is used to analyse and resistively cool the stored ions. Different ion species in the trap are resolved according to their charge-to-mass ratio by fixing the detection frequency and ramping over a range of trapping potentials. By selectively exciting the axial motion, Ar13+ ions are isolated from the ion cloud for the g-factor measurements. Studies are also done to determine the phase transition of dense ion clouds due to the discontinuous behaviour of spectral features during cooling.
