Abstract
We have trapped single molecular ions in a precision Penning trap and, using cyclotron resonance techniques, have measured the mass ratio M()/M() to be 0.999 598 8876(4). Accuracy is limited at 4× predominantly by temporal instability in the magnetic field. All other systematic sources of error are ΔM/M≲. .AE
