The storage and confinement of charged particles and anti-particles (electrons, positrons, ions) in open traps and ring accumulators of various designs are considered. Experiments on positron storage in the Penning—Malmberg—Surko trap at the Low-Energy Particle Toroidal Accumulator (LEPTA) are described in detail.

Keywords: Paul trap, Penning—Malmberg—Surko trap, electrons, ions, positrons, antihydrogen, positronium, storage, rotating electric field
