Winter school on Physics with Trapped Charged Particles

9 Jan 2012, 18:00 → 20 Jan 2012, 13:00 Europe/Zurich

Ecole de Physique des Houches

Joel Fajans (University of California, Berkeley), Martina Knoop (Université de Provence), Niels Madsen Madsen (Swansea University), Richard Thompson (Imperial College London)

The school will cover physics with trapped charged particles, including physics of trapped charged particles. Lectures will cover basic trap physics in Penning traps, Paul traps etc., collective behavior and plasmas, as well as applications for fundamental physics, precision spectroscopy, quantum information, frequency standards, antimatter, and recent developments. The school has a limited capacity of 54 participants, is full and is therefore closed for applications.
