First measurement of the antihydrogen production cross section through the charge-exchange reaction of low-energy antiprotons with orthopositronium
GBAR Collaboration, P. Adrich, I. Belosevic +42
The GBAR experiment has measured the formation rate of antihydrogen from antiproton impact on a positronium cloud for antiproton kinetic energies of 4 and 6 keV. This is the first…
Monitoring antiproton numbers with a CMOS detector in a dense-track environment
C. Regenfus, P. Adrich, I. Belosevic +42
The production of antihydrogen by the GBAR experiment at AD/ELENA requires good knowledge of the number of incident keV antiprotons, which can be problematic. We have used a commer…
A determination of the backscattering probability of low-energy antiprotons
GBAR Collaboration, K. Park, E. Perez +42
It is commonly assumed that antiprotons impinging on a material surface annihilate promptly with the nuclei of the material. However, at kinetic energies of a few keV, this assumpt…
Record accumulation of antiprotons in a Penning-Malmberg Trap and their preparation for improved production of antihydrogen beams
B. Lee, B. Kim, P. Adrich +35
CERN's AD/ELENA ``antimatter factory'' - unique worldwide - serves several experiments, all of which use electromagnetic traps to accumulate antiprotons for fundamental science. Th…
Optimizing Antihydrogen Production via Slow Plasma Merging
E D Hunter, M Bumbar, C Amsler +29
We measure the time-dependent temperature and density distribution of antiprotons and positrons while slowly combining them to make antihydrogen atoms in a nested Penning-Malmberg…
Measured Properties of an Antihydrogen Beam
E. D. Hunter, M. Bumbar, C. Amsler +29
We report a factor of increase in the antihydrogen beam intensity downstream of ASACUSA's Cusp trap: atoms detected per -minute run. The beam contains many Rydberg…
