We describe work at the ALPHA collaboration at CERN that is leading to a 13 significant figures measurement of the 1S-2S transition in antihydrogen with a physics-driven lineshape theory. A future comparison of matter and antimatter in this system at 15 figures or more will be discussed in conjunction with techniques being developed at UFRJ to load hydrogen into the same antihydrogen trap.
Precision measurements of conjugate particles and antiparticles test CPT invariance, a fundamental symmetry in the Standard Model of particle physics. Penning traps can precisely measure the charge-to-mass ratios and magnetic moments of charged particles. The BASE collaboration is performing such measurements on single trapped protons and antiprotons, and reported recently a charge-to-mass...
The Antimatter Experiment: Gravity, Interferometry, Spectroscopy (AEgIS) at CERN's Antimatter Decelerator (AD) is used for the production and study of antimatter bound systems, such as antihydrogen for the gravitational influence on a horizontal beam of cold antihydrogen atoms [1]. AEGIS has achieved remarkable performance in trapping antiprotons and successfully demonstrated the pulsed...
The upgrade of the antiproton decelerator, the Extra Low ENergy Antiproton (ELENA) ring started its operation at CERN in the Fall of 2021 and opened a new era for antihydrogen research. The Gravitational Behaviour of Antihydrogen at Rest (GBAR) collaboration has since started taking data and aims to directly test the Weak Equivalence Principle with a free fall of ultracold antihydrogen...
