Ion trapping was first accomplished in Europe more than 50 years
ago. Since then, research and development have increased steadily,
and the last decades have seen a remarkable growth in applications,
mainly due to the improvement of laser-based techniques for
spectroscopy, cooling and the manipulation of ions. Nowadays ion
trapping plays a crucial role in a wide range of disciplines,
including atomic and plasma physics, chemistry, high precision
measurement, high energy physics and the emerging field of quantum
technologies. This book presents lectures and reports from the
Enrico Fermi School Ion Traps for Tomorrow's Applications , held in
Varenna, Italy, in July 2013. Reflecting the aim of the school to
exploit diversity and stimulate cross fertilization, the selected
topics and highlights in this book partly review the wide range of
subjects discussed during the course, while providing an overview
of this topical domain. As well as providing a useful reference
guide, the book will be a source of inspiration for all those
planning to work on ion trapping in the future.
