Design and operation of APEX-LD: a compact levitated dipole for the confinement of electron-positron pair plasmas
A. Card, M. R. Stoneking, A. Deller +1
The objective of the APEX (A Positron-Electron eXperiment) project is to magnetically confine and study electron--positron pair plasmas. For this purpose, a levitated dipole trap (…

Injection of Positrons into a Dense Electron Cloud in a Magnetic Dipole Trap
M. Singer, M. R. Stoneking, E. V. Stenson +7
The creation of an electron space charge in a dipole magnetic trap and the subsequent injection of positrons has been experimentally demonstrated. Positrons (5eV) were magnetically…
