Abstract
We describe how a single hydrogen-like ion (C5+) is prepared, cooled with the method of resistive cooling and non-destructively detected with the image-current technique in a cryogenic Penning trap at T = 4 K. The storage time for C5+-ions in the cryogenically pumped vacuum chamber is longer than six months. The experimental techniques of preparing, cooling and detecting highly-charged ions in a Penning trap are relevant for precision experiments such as g-factor measurements, mass spectroscopy and laser spectroscopy.
