Motivated by possible atomic origins of the unidentified emission line detected at 3.55-3.57 keV in a stacked spectrum of galaxy clusters, an electron beam ion trap (EBIT) was used to investigate the resonant dielectronic recombination (DR) process in highly charged argon ions as a possible contributor to the emission feature.

The spectra were measured in the wavelength range 2.7-17.

The electron beam energy was systematically varied from 2.3 keV-6.
