Varactor Boards, HV Connections & BASE Upkeep

RIKENs BASE experiment aims to measure possible differences in specific charge and g- factor between protons and antiprotons as an avenue to probing for CPT violation. In the advanced penning trap setup which measures these quantities, resonators oscillate at specific frequencies tunable via a varactor circuit, and catching electrodes need to be supplied with high voltage without interaction with other components. In implementing improvements, work on opening and closing the experiment needs to be done. This document will focus on these three topics and my contribution during the summer student programme
