The particle number density and shape of an ensemble of confined in a Penning trap can be controlled by the so-called ‘rotating wall technique’, which is a specific, non-resonant excitation of the ensemble’s rotation. Here, we briefly discuss the requirements, technical implementations, and the phenomenology of such a rotating wall, mainly when used for compression of the confined ensemble.
