Abstract
We describe a laser-cooling experiment on Mg+ ions confined in an electromagnetic trap (Penning trap or rf trap) and give the preliminary experimental results. In particular, we have observed a laser cooling in the Penning trap configuration in which a measured temperature of about 1 K has been obtained.
