The electric field experienced by bound electrons in highly charged ions ranks among the strongest available to experimental studies. For moderate atomic numbers, the electric field in hydrogen-like ions is equivalent to current laser systems. [...]

Transverse excitation is a key method required for the operation of synchrotrons, a type of circular particle accelerator suitable for a wide range of applications. The excitation is essential to control the beam: First, it is used in the context of beam diagnostics to enable monitoring of the accelerator's working point (tune). [...]
