ISAMP is organizing an online school on the physics of Penning traps. The school aims to create awareness among the students about Penning trap and its wide application to study the fundamental processes of nature with trapped ions.
The Penning trap confines ions cloud, or single ion, in a small volume for extended period of time.
About the speaker:
Dr. Sugam Kumar is a Scientist at Inter-University Accelerator Centre (IUAC), New Delhi, India. He obtained his Ph.D. from Jawahar Lal Nehru University, New Delhi. His PhD work was on Design of a Penning Trap to study ions in extreme laser fields at GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research, Darmstadt, Germany. He is currently setting up the Penning Trap Facility at IUAC to study the electron impact ionization cross section and the life time of the metastable state of heavy highly charged ions resulting from collisions of relativistic electrons with energies between 2 and 5MeV.
