چکیده
A procedure is described to extract beams from specially tailored electron plasmas in a Penning-Malmberg trap in a 4.8 T field. Transport to 1 mT is followed by extraction from the magnetic field and electrostatic focusing. Potential applications to positron beams are discussed.

Electrostatic beams from tailored plasmas in a Penning–Malmberg trap
In recent work, a technique was developed to extract high quality beams from single-component plasmas confined in a Penning–Malmberg trap in a 4.8 T magnetic field. In this paper, a procedure is developed to extract these beams from the confining magnetic field and then focus them to create especially tailored electrostatic beams. Electron beams are extracted from the field in two stages: they ...
متن کاملRecent Progress in Tailoring Trap-based Positron Beams
Recent progress is described to implement two approaches to specially tailor trapbased positron beams. Experiments and simulations are presented to understand the limits on the energy spread and pulse duration of positron beams extracted from a Penning-Malmberg (PM) trap after the particles have been buffer-gas cooled (or heated) in the range of temperatures 1000 T 300 K. These simulations are ...
متن کاملContinuously Injected Plasma Columns
Electron plasma columns continuously injected into a Malmberg-Penning trap display a rich evolution. Electrons emitted from an illuminated photocathode are trapped in the electrostatic well formed by the negatively biased photocathode and the trap end cylinder. Initially, the injections form cylinders of uniform density. As the density increases, the columns hollow in an attempt to match the po...
متن کاملA treecode algorithm for simulating electron dynamics in a Penning-Malmberg trap
A treecode algorithm is presented for computing the electrostatic potential and electric field in a system of charged particles. The algorithm is grid-free and with N particles it reduces the operation count to O(N logN), as opposed to O(N2) which is required for direct summation of pairwise interactions. The key idea is to replace the particle–particle interactions by particle– cluster interac...
متن کاملMalmberg–Penning and Minimum-B trap compatibility: the advantages of higher-order multipole traps
The ATHENA and ATRAP collaborations have recently created large numbers of untrapped anti-hydrogen atoms. The most commonly suggested scheme for trapping the anti-hydrogen is to use a Minimum-B trap. Unfortunately, the Minimum-B fields are very likely to destroy the confinement of the anti-hydrogen constituents, the positrons and antiprotons, which are themselves held in double-well Malmberg–Pe...
