Abstract
Here we summarise the present status of the experimental programme of the Oxfordelectron beam ion trap. Most notably this research has recently culminated in the successful measurementof the 2s1/2–2p3/2 transition in hydrogenlike nitrogen by a laser resonance method. We also introduce preliminary results from some computational investigations of both electron beam transport and the trapped ion ensemble. In particular, we show that the contribution of the magneticfield to ion confinement has a potentially measurable effect on the ion phase space distribution.
