Electron–beam ion trap/source for ion–molecule collisions in the non-perturbative regime

Abstract

An Electron Beam Ion Trap and Source has been installed at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research Pune. The source, manufactured by Dreebit GmbH, will provide ions up to Ar16+ at energies up to 30 keV/q. These will be used for studying ion-molecule collisions in the non-perturbative regime.
