Abstract

The goal of the ALPHA collaboration at CERN is to test CPT conservation by comparing the 1S–2S transitions of hydrogen and antihydrogen. To reach the ultimate accuracy of 1 part in 1018, the (anti)atoms must be trapped. Using current technology, only magnetic minimum traps can confine (anti)hydrogen...
