Contribution

Implemented and commissioned the Phase-Imaging Ion-Cyclotron-Resonance (PI-ICR) technique at CERN’s ISOLTRAP Penning-trap mass spectrometer—including the required electronics and software—for online high-precision mass spectrometry, and measured exotic neutron-rich copper isotopes—including work probing the structure of doubly magic ⁷⁸Ni from one proton away (⁷⁹Cu).
