Description: Articles on Physics with Trapped Charged Particles by speakers at the Winter School on Physics with Trapped Charged Particles hosted by the École de Physicque des Houches in January 2012. The articles cover all types of physics with charged particles, and are aimed at introducing the basic issues at hand, as well as the latest developments in the field. It is appropriate for PhD students and early career researchers, or interested parties new to the area.--
