| Abstract: | The Canadian Penning Trap (CPT) mass spectrometer is a device used for high-precision mass measurements on short-lived isotopes.
It is located at the ATLAS superconducting heavy-ion linac facility where a novel injection system, the RF gas cooler, allows
fast reaction products to be decelerated, thermalized and bunched for rapid and efficient injection into the CPT. The CPT
spectrometer and its injection system will be described in detail and its unique capabilities with respect to its initial
physics program, concentrating on isotopes around the N=Z line with particular emphasis on isotopes of interest to low-energy tests of the electroweak interaction and the rp-process,
will be highlighted.
