AEgIS (Antimatter Experiment: gravity, Interferometry, Spectroscopy), AD-6, is an experiment at the Antiproton Decelerator facility at CERN.Its primary goal is to measure directly the effect of Earth's gravitational field on antihydrogen atoms with significant precision. [1]
AEgIS, Antimatter Experiment: gravity, Interferometry, Spectroscopy, AD-6, is an experiment at the Antiproton Decelerator. AEgIS would attempt to determine if gravity affects antimatter in the same way it affects normal matter by testing its effect on an antihydrogen beam.
These limits were coarse, with a relative precision of ±100%, thus, far from a clear statement even for the sign of gravity acting on antimatter. Future experiments at CERN with beams of antihydrogen, such as AEgIS, or with trapped antihydrogen, such as ALPHA and GBAR, have to improve the sensitivity to make a clear, scientific statement about ...
ALPHA experiment. The Antihydrogen Laser Physics Apparatus (ALPHA), also known as AD-5, is an experiment at CERN's Antiproton Decelerator, designed to trap antihydrogen in a magnetic trap in order to study its atomic spectra.
Simon van der Meer in the Antiproton Accumulator Control Room, 1984. From the beginning of the project, the potential of physics with low-energy antiprotons was recognized. A Low Energy Antiproton Ring (LEAR) was built and received antiprotons from the AA from 1983 on, for deceleration to as low as 100 MeV/c. [8] The first artificially created antimatter, in the form of anti-Hydrogen, was ...
First elements of the PUMA experiment installed in the AD facility at CERN. The PUMA (antiProton Unstable Matter Annihilation) AD-9 experiment, at the Antiproton decelerator (AD) facility at CERN, Geneva, aims to look into the quantum interactions and annihilation processes between the antiprotons and the exotic slow-moving nuclei.
This results in a loss of about 99.9% of antiprotons. The ELENA ring with its efficient beam cooling and deceleration method is meant to increase the effective number of antiprotons that could be made available to the antimatter experiments by reducing the usage of the degrader foils.

The Low Energy Anti-Proton Ring (LEAR) was a particle accelerator at CERN which operated from 1982 until 1996. [1] The ring was designed to decelerate and store antiprotons, to study the properties of antimatter and to create atoms of antihydrogen. [2]
