Antiproton compression and radial measurements
نویسندگان
چکیده
Control of the radial profile of trapped antiproton clouds is critical to trapping antihydrogen. We report detailed measurements of the radial manipulation of antiproton clouds, including areal density compressions by factors as large as ten, achieved by manipulating spatially overlapped electron plasmas. We show detailed measurements of the near-axis antiproton radial profile, and its relation to that of the electron plasma. We also measure the outer radial profile by ejecting antiprotons to the trap wall using an octupole magnet.

Compression of antiproton clouds for antihydrogen trapping.
Control of the radial profile of trapped antiproton clouds is critical to trapping antihydrogen. We report the first detailed measurements of the radial manipulation of antiproton clouds, including areal density compressions by factors as large as ten, by manipulating spatially overlapped electron plasmas. We show detailed measurements of the near-axis antiproton radial profile and its relation...
متن کاملRadial compression of protons and H3+ ions in a multiring trap for the production of ultralow energy antiproton beams.
Radial compression of a proton cloud was performed in a multiring trap which was designed to trap and cool a large number of antiprotons for the production of low-energy ( 10-1000 eV ) antiproton beams. The resonance frequency for the radial compression was almost constant from 3 x 10(5) to 3 x 10(6) protons. The collision process of the trapped protons was also investigated to estimate the ene...
متن کاملRadial compression of antiproton cloud for production of ultraslow antiproton beams
Cooling and manipulation of a large number of antiprotons held in an electro-magnetic trap are key techniques for the synthesizing antihydrogen atoms and antiprotonic atoms [1]. We, MUSASHI sub-group in ASACUSA collaboration, achieved accumulation and cooling of antiprotons with at least 50 times higher efficiency than has been achieved by conventional methods [2]. Extracting these antiprotons ...
متن کاملPalmar microcirculation after harvesting of the radial artery in coronary revascularization.
PURPOSE To evaluate real-time parameters of palmar microcirculation before and after harvesting of the radial artery in coronary revascularization using a laser Doppler flowmetry and remission spectroscopy system (O2C). DESCRIPTION Fifteen patients (11 males, 54 +/- 4 years, mean New York Heart Association [NYHA] class of 2.3 +/- 0.3) were prospectively scheduled with control measurements of ...
متن کاملSome Aspects of Antiproton–nucleus Physics
A brief review of antiproton–nucleus physics is presented. Some topics are related to early LEAR experiments, and others to more recent measurements or proposals. These include: exotic molecules, elastic and inelastic scattering, deep annihilation, strangeness production, neutron–antineutron oscillations, halo nu-clei, antiproton production in nuclear reactions etc.
