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…
Towards the formation of a positronium coherent beam
M. Sacerdoti, V. Toso, G. Vinelli +5
Positronium (Ps) has emerged as a promising test particle within the QUPLAS collaboration for investigating the gravitational effect. In this work, we present a novel approach to g…
Upgrade of the positron system of the ASACUSA-Cusp experiment
A. Lanz, C. Amsler, H. Breuker +35
The ASACUSA-Cusp collaboration has recently upgraded the positron system to improve the production of antihydrogen. Previously, the experiment suffered from contamination of the va…
Rydberg-positronium velocity and self-ionization studies in 1T magnetic field and cryogenic environment
M. Antonello, A. Belov, G. Bonomi R. S. Brusa +43
We characterized the pulsed Rydberg-positronium production inside the AEgIS (Antimatter Experiment: Gravity, Interferometry, Spectroscopy) apparatus in view of antihydrogen formati…
Velocity selected production of metastable positronium
C. Amsler, M. Antonello, A. Belov +52
Positronium in the metastable state exhibits a low electrical polarizability and a long lifetime (1140 ns) making it a promising candidate for interferometry experiments wit…
Producing long-lived Ps via laser excitation in magnetic and electric fields
S. Aghion, C. Amsler, M. Antonello +62
Producing positronium (Ps) in the metastable state is of interest for various applications in fundamental physics. We report here about an experiment in which Ps atom…
Formation Of A Cold Antihydrogen Beam in AEGIS For Gravity Measurements
G. Testera, A. S. Belov, G. Bonomi +62
The formation of the antihydrogen beam in the AEGIS experiment through the use of inhomogeneous electric fields is discussed and simulation results including the geometry of the ap…
