Confinement of antihydrogen for 1,000 seconds

Nature Physics, 2011 - nature.com
Atoms made of a particle and an antiparticle are unstable, usually surviving less than a
microsecond. Antihydrogen, made entirely of antiparticles, is believed to be stable, and it is …

The proton size

JP Karr, D Marchand, E Voutier - Nature Reviews Physics, 2020 - nature.com
The proton charge radius has been measured since the 1950s using elastic electron–proton
scattering and ordinary hydrogen atomic spectroscopy. In 2010, a highly precise …

Two-photon laser spectroscopy of antiprotonic helium and the antiproton-to-electron mass ratio

M Hori, A Sótér, D Barna, A Dax, R Hayano… - Nature, 2011 - nature.com
Physical laws are believed to be invariant under the combined transformations of charge,
parity and time reversal (CPT symmetry). This implies that an antimatter particle has exactly …

Buffer-gas cooling of antiprotonic helium to 1.5 to 1.7 K, and antiproton-to–electron mass ratio

M Hori, H Aghai-Khozani, A Sótér, D Barna, A Dax… - Science, 2016 - science.org
Charge, parity, and time reversal (CPT) symmetry implies that a particle and its antiparticle
