  1. 1. Computational investigation of the feasibility touse solid neon moderation for GBAR

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Lars Gehrmann; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The main goal of the GBAR (Graviational Behaviour of Antihydrogen at Rest) experiment is to investigatethe gravitational effect on antimatter by measuring the classical free fall of an antihydrogen atom. The requiredpositrons are created by pair production inside a tungsten target and are moderated using a tungsten mesh. READ MORE

  2. 2. Towards the Formation of the Antihydrogen Molecular Ion

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Thomas Nerdi; [2020]
    Keywords : Antihydrogen; Resonance Scattering; Non-Hermitian Quantum Mechanics;

    Abstract : The ALPHA experiment at CERN is an ongoing project which tests fundamental symmetries between matter and antimatter by producing and trapping antihydrogen atoms in order to perform precision spectroscopic measurements. A logical next step is to form the antihydrogen molecular ion (consisting of one positron and two antiprotons). READ MORE

  3. 3. Manipulation of positron plasma using the AEgIS system at CERN

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Tunnfilmsfysik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Ola Kenji Forslund; [2015]
    Keywords : positron; plasma; cern; aegis; trapping; rotating wall; penning malmberg trap; positronium; antihydrogen;

    Abstract : AEgIS is an experiment at CERN where the goal is to directly measure the gravitational force on antimatter by producing antihydrogen. The antihydrogen will be produced by a charge exchange reaction using laser excited positronium and cold antiprotons. READ MORE

  4. 4. A high sensitivity imaging detector for the study of the formation of (anti)hydrogen

    University essay from Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi; Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Karl Berggren; [2013]
    Keywords : CERN; AEGIS; MCP; Microchannel plates; cryo; cryogenic; antihydrogen; hydrogen; gain; resistance;

    Abstract : AEGIS (Antimatter Experiment, Gravity, Interferometry and Spectroscopy) isan experiment under development at CERN which will measure earth's gravitationalforce on antimatter. This will be done by creating a horizontal pulsedbeam of low energy antihydrogen, an atom consisting of an antiproton anda positron. READ MORE
