Abstract Antihydrogen atoms with K or sub-K temperature are a powerful tool to precisely probe the validity of fundamental physics laws and design highly sensitive experiments needs antihydrogen controllable well defined conditions. We present here experimental results on production in pulsed mode which time when 90% produced is known an uncertainty ~250 ns. The source generated by charge-exchange reaction between Rydberg positronium atoms—produced via injection positron beam into...
We report on laser cooling of a large fraction positronium (Ps) in free flight by strongly saturating the 1^{3}S-2^{3}P transition with broadband, long-pulsed 243 nm alexandrite laser. The ground state Ps cloud is produced magnetic and electric field-free environment. observe two different laser-induced effects. first effect an increase number atoms after time has spent long-lived 2^{3}P states. second one-dimensional Doppler Ps, reducing cloud's temperature from 380(20) to 170(20) K....

Antihydrogen formation at AEgIS CERN leverages charge exchange between Rydberg positronium (Ps*) and antiprotons, with cross-sections scaling the Ps principal quantum number $n^4$ inversely relative velocity $𝑣^{−2}$. However, motional Stark effect mismatch antiprotons impose stringent constraints, limiting efficiency. Advances in transmission converters mitigate self-ionization losses improve alignment, promising a significant boost antihydrogen yield. This work evaluates cross-sections,...

Considerations on the limits current experiment and possible future developments follow. In particular, benefit positron remoderation, use a magnetic field, polarization, pulse shaping, coherent deceleration are shortly discussed.

Modern physics experiments are frequently very complex, relying on multiple simultaneous events to happen in order obtain the desired result. The experiment control system plays a central role orchestrating measurement setup: However, its development is often treated as secondary with respect hardware, importance becoming evident only during operational phase. Therefore, AEgIS (Antimatter Experiment: Gravity, Interferometry, Spectroscopy) collaboration has created framework for easily coding...
