Extraction of the electron mass from factor measurements on light hydrogenlike ions

arXiv:1703.10649 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.96.012502

Abstract

The determination of the electron mass from Penning-trap measurements with C ions and from theoretical results for the bound-electron factor is described in detail. Some recently calculated contributions slightly shift the extracted mass value. Prospects of a further improvement of the electron mass are discussed both from the experimental and from the theoretical point of view. Measurements with He ions will enable a consistency check of the electron mass value, and in future an improvement of the He nuclear mass and a determination of the fine-structure constant.
