Towards Measuring the Ground State Hyperfine Splitting of Antihydrogen -- A Progress Report
arXiv:1606.01791 · doi:10.1007/s10751-016-1309-2
Abstract
We report the successful commissioning and testing of a dedicated field-ioniser chamber for measuring principal quantum number distributions in antihydrogen as part of the ASACUSA hyperfine spectroscopy apparatus. The new chamber is combined with a beam normalisation detector that consists of plastic scintillators and a retractable passivated implanted planar silicon (PIPS) detector.
