Abstract

This paper reviews plasma-related atomic physics experiments performed with an electron beam ion trap (EBIT). In particular, activities with two types of EBITs at the University of Electro-Communications are reported after introducing the principle and the design of the devices. Spectroscopic and collisional data which are useful for plasma diagnostics, technology development based on plasmas are presented.
