Topics for project 3

Hi all,
Hope the work with project 2 went well. We're putting the finishing touches on project 3 right now, but we can already reveal the main topics:

• The physics topic of project 3 will be Penning traps, which are devices for storing charged particles using a configuration of static electric and magnetic fields.
• Coding-wise our main focus will be how to solve this problem using an object oriented approach. So that means you'll be writing some C++ classes.
• In terms of algorithms, the main workhorse this time will be the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method.
• And of course, a main focus for this project is that you will be writing a proper scientific report.
