    "abstract": "The lifetime of the metastable 3P2 state of neon has been determined to\n14.70(13) s (decay rate 0.06801(62) 1/s) by measuring the decay in fluorescence\nof an ensemble of Ne-20 atoms trapped in a magneto-optical trap (MOT). Due to\nlow background gas pressure p \u003c 5 10^-11 mbar and low relative excitation to\nthe 3D3 state (0.5% excitation probability) operation only small corrections\nhave to be included in the lifetime extrapolation. Together with a careful\nanalysis of residual loss mechanisms in the MOT a lifetime determination to\nhigh precision is achieved.",
