Title: The Lamb shift in heliumlike uranium (U/sup 90 +/)

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6689598· OSTI ID:6689598

An experimental value of 70.4 (8.3) eV for the one-electron Lamb shift in uranium is reported, in agreement with the theoretical value of 75.3 (0.4) eV. The Lamb shift is extracted from a beam-foil time-of-flight measurement of the 54.4 (3.4) ps lifetime of the 1s 2p/sub 1/2/ /sup 3/P/sub 0/ state of heliumlike (two-electron) uranium. 18 figs.
