Adaptable platform for trapped cold electrons, hydrogen and lithium anions and cations
Abstract Cold cations, electrons and anions are ubiquitous in space, participate in star formation chemistry and are relevant to studies on the origin of molecular biology homochirality. We report on a system to generate and trap these species in the laboratory. Laser ablation of a solid target (LiH...
