Photo of Professor Martin Madsen's ion trap and vacuum system. Visible are the electron gun on the top, the rf trap (the interlocking rings) and the calcium atomic oven on the bottom.

Wabash physics students have the opportunity to investigate with our faculty the quantum physics of trapped ions, the nature of exotic nuclei, and search for new forces and extra dimensions. In addition, students frequently participate in summer undergraduate research programs at major universities or at national laboratories.
