Re-Orientation Spectroscopy of Stored Ions
Abstract
The results of a program of research in the rf spectroscopy of stored ions are described. Work has been done on the study of magnetic resonance and hfs of e(-), and H2(+). Techniques for measuring the temperature of ion gases and their radiative cooling have been developed. Continuous observation of a single electron oscillating with an energy of approximately equal or > (1/100) eV inside a penning trap has been realized, 'Monoelectron Oscillator'. A new principle of forced radial shrinking of stored ion clouds by simultaneously cyclotron excitation and axial damping has been proposed which may be of use in the confinement of fusion plasmas.
