    A transportable Paul-trap for levitation and accurate positioning of micron-scale particles in vacuum for laser-plasma experiments
    (Melville, NY : American Institute of Physics, 2018) Ostermayr, T.M.; Gebhard, J.; Haffa, D.; Kiefer, D.; Kreuzer, C.; Allinger, K.; Bömer, C.; Braenzel, J.; Schnürer, M.; Cermak, I.; Schreiber, J.; Hilz, P.
    We report on a Paul-trap system with large access angles that allows positioning of fully isolated micrometer-scale particles with micrometer precision as targets in high-intensity laser-plasma interactions. This paper summarizes theoretical and experimental concepts of the apparatus as well as supporting measurements that were performed for the trapping process of single particles.
