Plasma Physics 2020-08-14 v1

Abstract

A coupled two frequency Hill's equation is solved. Analytically approximate solution correct up-to first order is derived using modified Lindstedt Poincare perturbation method. For a wide range of controlling parameters we compare the numerical and analytical solutions. The solution is the first step towards developing a comprehensive understanding of the electrodynamics of charged particles in a combinational ion trap utilizing both electrostatic DC and RF fields along with a constant static magnetic field with prospects of confining antimatter such as anti hydrogen for a reasonably long durations of time.
