Abstract
In this section, an introduction to electrodynamic quadrupole traps is given and the experimental realization is presented. The theoretical part is mostly based on textbook knowledge from Major et al. (Charged particle traps, vol 37. Springer, Heidelberg, 2005 [6]), Werth et al. (Charged particle traps II, vol 54. Springer, Heidelberg, 2009 [7]).

Notes
- 1.
The development of this setup and related methods to their current status has been a long-term collaborative effort. It took work of five LMU master/diploma thesis (Hilz [1], Ostermayr [2], Haffa [3], Singer [4] and Gebhard [5]) of which I (co-)supervised the last three, and two dissertations (T. Ostermayr and P. Hilz), to get there.
