<strong>Ion</strong>s in static or quasi-static static electro-magnetic fields<br />
Lorentz Force<br />
For ion acceleration electric forces are used.<br />
(1)<br />
q = electric charge<br />
B = magn. induction<br />
E = electric field<br />
v = velocity<br />
For momentum analysis <strong>the</strong> magnetic force is preferred because <strong>the</strong><br />
force is always perpendicular <strong>to</strong> B. Therefore v, p and E are constant.<br />
Force in magnetic dipole B = const: p = q B ρ<br />
p = mv = momentum<br />
