Searches for electric dipole moments (EDM), axion-like particle searches, ultra-cold atom experiments in space, atomic fountains or a new neutron-antineutron oscillation search at the European Spallation Source require precisely characterized and also very small magnetic fields. Some of these experiments actually are the most accurate and precise magnetic field sensors ever...
The Penning-trap mass spectrometer PENTATRAP [1] located at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg is able to determine mass-ratios of highly charged ions of long-lived nuclides with a relative uncertainty of a few ppt [2, 3]. With a broad measurement program PENTATRAP did and continues to contribute to several fields of physics, e.g. test of bound-state QED [2] with direct...
