Positron plasma diagnostics and temperature control for antihydrogen production.
Production of antihydrogen atoms by mixing antiprotons with a cold, confined, positron plasma depends critically on parameters such as the plasma density and temperature. We discuss nondestructive measurements, based on a novel, real-time analysis of excited, low-order plasma modes, that provide comprehensive characterization of the positron plasma in the ATHENA antihydrogen apparatus. The plas...
متن کاملProduction of Antihydrogen
Results are presented for a measurement for the production of the anti-hydrogen atom H 0 pe + , the simplest atomic bound state of antimatter. A method has been used by the PS210 collaboration at LEAR which assumes that the production of H 0 is predominantly mediated by the e + e ? { pair creation via the two{photon mechanism in the antiproton{nucleus interaction. Neutral H 0 atoms are identiie...
متن کاملLow-temperature antihydrogen-atom scattering
A simple method to include the strong force in atom–antiatom scattering is presented. It is based on the strong-force scattering length between the nucleon and antinucleon. Using this method elastic and annihilation cross sections are calculated for hydrogen–antihydrogen and helium–antihydrogen scattering. The results are compared to first-order perturbation theory using a pseudo potential. The...
متن کاملFirst laser-controlled antihydrogen production.
Lasers are used for the first time to control the production of antihydrogen (H ). Sequential, resonant charge exchange collisions are involved in a method that is very different than the only other method used so far-producing slow H during positron cooling of antiprotons in a nested Penning trap. Two attractive features are that the laser frequencies determine the H binding energy, and that t...
متن کاملAntimatter Gravity and Antihydrogen Production
Certain modern theories of gravity predict that antimatter will fall differently than matter in the Earth’s gravitational field. However, no experimental tests of gravity on antimatter exist and all conclusions drawn from experiments on matter depend, at some level, on a specific model. We have proposed a direct measurement that would compare the gravitational acceleration of antiprotons to tha...
