Low energy precision tests of the Standard Model
Oral
Two decades after the first production of (relativistic) antihydrogen atoms, and a good decade after the first production of “cold” antihydrogen, first measurements of the properties of antihydrogen have recently begun. Together with the start-up of an additional dedicated low energy antiproton decelerator (ELENA), and the development of a wide range of techniques that permit precise atomic...

Fundamental physics and precision experiments with muons, pions, neutrons, antiprotons, and other particles
Oral
The ALPHA experiment at CERN aims to address some of the most fundamental issues in modern physics using trapped antihydrogen atoms. Following our successful trapping on antihydrogen [1,2], ALPHA has been performing measurements on the properties of antihydrogen atoms, including a proof of principle of a hyperfine splitting measurement [3], and a search for an anomalous very weak force [4]....

Low energy precision tests of the Standard Model
Oral
The goal of the ASACUSA CUSP collaboration at the Antiproton Decelerator of CERN is to measure the ground-state hyperfine splitting of antihydrogen using an atomic spectroscopy beamline. The collaboration has recently succeeded in detecting 80 antihydrogen atoms 2.7 meters away from their production trap in a magnetic field free region [1]. This successful detection constitutes a milestone...

Fundamental physics and precision experiments with muons, pions, neutrons, antiprotons, and other particles
Oral
Comparisons of the fundamental properties of protons and antiprotons constitute sensitive tests of CPT invariance being of one of the most fundamental symmetries in the Standard Model.
The Baryon Antibaryon Symmetry Experiment (BASE) located at the antiproton decelerator of CERN is dedicated to determine the proton-to-antiproton charge-to-mass ratio and the magnetic moment of the antiproton...
