- Abstract summary: We analytically describe the RF-potential of a realistic octupole trap by including lower order terms to the well-established equation for a perfectly symmetric octupole trap.
A complete equation is proposed for a trap with any electrode deviation relying on a combination of the simple cases where the defects are taken individually.
An independent fine-tuning of the amplitude of the RF voltage applied on each electrode can be used to mitigate the geometrical defects of a realistic trap.

- Abstract: Radio-frequency linear multipole traps have been shown to be very sensitive
to mis-positioning of their electrodes, which results in a symmetry breaking
and leads to extra local minima in the trapping potential \cite{pedregosa17}
disturbing the operation of the trap. In this work, we analytically describe
the RF-potential of a realistic octupole trap by including lower order terms to
the well-established equation for a perfectly symmetric octupole trap. We
describe the geometry by a combination of identified defects, characterised by
simple analytical expressions. A complete equation is proposed for a trap with
any electrode deviation relying on a combination of the simple cases where the
defects are taken individually. Our approach is validated by comparison between
analytical and numerical results for defect sizes up to 4\% of the trap radius.
As described in \cite{pedregosa18}, an independent fine-tuning of the amplitude
of the RF voltage applied on each electrode can be used to mitigate the
geometrical defects of a realistic trap. In a different way than in
\cite{pedregosa18}, the knowledge of an analytical equation for the potential
allows to design the set of RF-voltages required for this compensation, based
on the experimental measurement of the ion position in the trap, without
information concerning the exact position of each electrode, and with a small
number of iterations. The requirements, performances and limitations of this
protocol are discussed via comparison of numerical simulations and analytical
results.

Dissipative stabilization of cat qubits autonomously corrects for bit flip errors by ensuring that reservoir-engineered two-photon losses dominate over other mechanisms inducing phase flip errors.
We analyze the dressing of relaxation processes under drives in time-dependent Schrieffer-Wolff perturbation theory for weakly anharmonic bosonic degrees of freedom.
We find that spurious single-photon decay rates can increase under the action of the parametric pump that generates the required interactions for cat-qubit stabilization.
