Abstract

The diffusion and synchronization in an ion-trap resonator was studied. The motion of an ion bunch trapped between two electrostatic mirrors in an ion-trap resonator was analyzed by using numerical simulations. Results revealed that under certain conditions it was possible to achieve either synchronization of the ion motion or enhanced diffusion that lead to rapid debunching.
