Abstract
Multiply charged ions of rare gases were produced through photoionization, using white synchrotron radiation from the accumulation ring of TRISTAN, and the ions were confined in an rf trap. Charge state distribution and lifetime of the stored ions were measured by time-of-flight detection. Confinement of Xe6+-Xe8+ was exhibited with the storage lifetime of several ms, which is limited by the high background pressure needed to accumulate sufficient ion intensity.Keywords
