Abstract We present a systematic and quantitative investigation of the electrostatic anharmonicity in cylindrical Penning traps that is induced by the presence of radial holes for access to the trap center. The expected distortion of the electrostatic potential is studied as a function of the relative hole size, shape, arrangement, and number.
