Penning Trap Measurements of the Masses ofC133s,R87,85b, andN23awith Uncertainties0.2ppb

Abstract
We report new values from Penning trap single ion mass spectrometry for the atomic masses of 133Cs, 87Rb, 85Rb, and 23Na with uncertainties 0.2ppb, a factor of 100 improvement over the accuracy of previously measured values. We have found M(133Cs)=132.905451931(27)u, M(87Rb)=86.909180520(15)u, M(85Rb)=84.911789732(14)u, and M(23Na)=22.9897692807(28)u. These values are important for new ppb-level determinations of the molar Planck constant NAh and the fine-structure constant α. With the measurement of 133Cs we have increased the mass range for sub-ppb measurements by a factor of 3. From M(133Cs) and other values we derive α1=137.0359922(40).
