Analysis of Multipolar Linear Paul Traps for Ion–Atom Ultracold Collision Experiments

We evaluate the performance of multipole, linear Paul traps for the purpose of studying cold ion–atom collisions. A combination of numerical simulations and analysis based on the virial theorem is used to draw conclusions on the differences that result, by considering the trapping details of several...
