I understand this is something similar to a penning trap, are they one in the same?

SUMMARY
A multiring trap is a type of particle trap that shares similarities with a Penning trap, primarily in its ability to confine charged particles using electric and magnetic fields. While the Penning trap utilizes a combination of static electric and magnetic fields, the multiring trap employs multiple concentric rings to achieve particle confinement. This discussion highlights the need for further exploration into the specific operational principles and applications of multiring traps in experimental physics.
