Abstract: Continuous monitoring of a cloud of antiprotons stored in a Penning trap for 405 days enables us to set an improved limit on the directly measured antiproton lifetime. From our measurements we extract a storage… read more here.

Abstract: Antiproton annihilations on matter nuclei are usually detected by tracking the charged pions emitted in the process. A detector made of plastic scintillating bars have been built and used in the ASACUSA experiment for the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rsta.2017.0266
Abstract: The CERN Antiproton Decelerator (AD) provides antiproton beams with a kinetic energy of 5.3 MeV to an active user community. The experiments would profit from a lower beam energy, but this extraction energy is the lowest… read more here.
