Electrostatic end-field defocusing of neutral atoms and its compensation
Neutral atoms entering an electric field experience a defocusing force in the dipole field direction, which is proportional to the field gradient. If an experiment, such as the search for a permanent electron electric dipole moment (eEDM), requires a very strong electric field (13.5 MV/m), then thi...
