Description

Antiprotonic atoms have been produced since the 1980's, but recent developments of laser-controlled controlled charge exchange processes in Penning traps have opened up a wide range of new physics topics. This talk will address several of these, whose physics reach ranges from atomic cascades within antiprotonic Rydberg atoms, a new production method of trapped, cold, fully stripped radioisotopes, the formation of hydrogen-like Rydberg highly charged ions, the possibility of searching for a putative antiprotonic EDM in antiprotonic molecules, to a novel search for a heretofore unexplored dark matter candidate.
