Ideal Penning trap Harmonic confinement in z-direction PIPERADE collaboration meeting
Real Penning trap Cylindrical trap can reproduce quadrupolar potential in the center of the trap. Anharmonic terms • Frequency shifts • We can design a trap with certain geometry and voltages to minimize anharmonic terms. PIPERADE collaboration meeting
Real Penning trap • We can calculate analytically the potential of an arbitrary cylindrical geometry if: • Endcap are grounded (VEC = 0V) • Endcap length is 3 times the inner radius (EC > 3 a) PIPERADE collaboration meeting
Real Penning trap We can TUNE the geometry and voltages applied to the trap electrodes to minimize anharmonic terms. Conditions: Compensated trap C4 & C6 vanish for T Orthogonal trap ωz is independent of Uc PIPERADE collaboration meeting
Trap design: machining precision Results for the 8 cm trap (U0 = -10 V) For 16 cm trap & U0 = -100V better results are expected. Orthogonal trap: Changes in correction voltage do cause axial frequency shift. Minimization of C4 and C6: Imperfections of electric field do not cause frequency shifts. PIPERADE collaboration meeting

The cables problem!! • Trap: 22 connections • Injection electrodes: 2 x 10 connections • Ejection electrodes: 2 x 10 connections • Diaphragms: 3 x 2 connections TOTAL: 90 connections!!!! (All coming from one side…) PIPERADE collaboration meeting
Real Penning trap To obtain the potential solve the Laplace equation using the general Green’s function approach: say If endcaps are grounded and pot. vanish outer ends of the trap we can write the pot. as: This solution gives results valid to better than 1 % in all electrostatic coefficients if the endcap length is 3 times the inner radius.
