Abstract

The ATHENA experiment at CERN, after producing cold antihydrogen atoms for the first time in 2002, has synthesised protonium atoms in vacuum at very low energies. Protonium, i.e. the antiproton–proton bound system, is of interest for testing fundamental physical theories. In the nested penning trap...
