Description

ALPHA-g is a new initiative by the ALPHA collaboration, whose primary goal is to study the gravitational interaction of antihydrogen atoms in a magnetic trap. In this talk, I will give an overview of the ALPHA-g experiment, and discuss the prospects for precision measurements of antimatter gravity which this apparatus will offer.
