Abstract
The utility of an electron beam ion trap (EBIT) as a source of highly charged ions for laser spectroscopy is discussed, with a view to measu ring the 2s Lamb shift in a medium-Z hydrogen-like ion. Such an experi ment could shed light on a small but systematic discrepancy between pr evious measurements and theory.
