Cold-Antimatter Physics
ATHENA Collaboration, M. Amoretti, C. Amsler +33
The CPT theorem and the Weak Equivalence Principle are foundational principles on which the standard description of the fundamental interactions is based. The validity of such basi…
ATHENA -- First Production of Cold Antihydrogen and Beyond
ATHENA Collaboration, A. Kellerbauer, M. Amoretti +33
Atomic systems of antiparticles are the laboratories of choice for tests of CPT symmetry with antimatter. The ATHENA experiment was the first to report the production of copious am…
Production of Cold Antihydrogen with ATHENA for Fundamental Studies
ATHENA Collaboration, A. Kellerbauer, M. Amoretti +33
Since the beginning of operations of the CERN Antiproton Decelerator in July 2000, the successful deceleration, storage and manipulation of antiprotons has led to remarkable progre…
Detection of antihydrogen annihilations with a Si-micro-strip and pure CsI detector
I. Johnson
In 2002, the ATHENA collaboration reported the creation and detection of cold (~15 K) antihydrogen atoms [1]. The observation was based on the complete reconstruction of antihydrog…
