Abstract
For over a decade, Linear Paul Traps (LPT) have been used in the study of accelerator beam dynamics. LPT studies exploit the similarity of the Hamiltonian with that of a beam in a quadrupole channel while having advantages in the flexibility of parameter choice, compactness and low cost. In collaboration with Hiroshima University, LPT research planned at STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in the UK aims to investigate a range of topics including resonance crossing, halo formation, long-term stability studies and space-charge effects. Initially, a conventional quadrupole-based LPT will be built at RAL and used for a variety of experiments. In parallel, a design for a more advanced LPT that incorporates higher order multipoles will be pursued and later constructed. This multipole trap will allow non-linear lattice elements to be simulated and so broaden considerably the range of experiments that can be conducted. These will include the investigation of resonance crossing in non-linear lattices, a more detailed study of halo formation and the effect of detuning with amplitude. In this paper we report on progress made in the project to date and future plans.
