Abstract
Inward transport of a magnetized pure positron plasma confined in a Penning-Malmberg trap is produced by applying a rotating electric field to the plasma. Compression is observed over a broad range of frequencies. Compression factors up to 20 in central density were obtained. Positron collisions with a neutral buffer gas are used to counteract the heating due to the rotating electric field. The results have implications for a variety of applications including the production of brightness enhanced positron beams, the study of electron-positron plasmas, and antihydrogen production.
