Charged Particle Traps: Physics and Techniques of Charged Particle Field Confinement

Over the last quarter of this century, revolutionary advances have been made both in kind and in precision in the application of particle traps to the study of thephysics of charged particles, leading to intensified interest in, and wide proliferation of, this topic. This book is intended as a timely addition to the literature, providing a systematic unified treatment of the subject, from the point of view of the application of these devices to fundamental atomic and particle physics. The t...
