Electron neutral collision frequency is measured using both grounded and floating hairpin resonator probes in a 27 MHz parallel plate capacitively coupled plasma (CCP). Operating conditions are 0.1-2 Torr (13.3-267 Pa) in Ar, He, and Ar-He…
Fermilab operates the world's most intense antiproton source. Newly proposed experiments can use those antiprotons either parasitically during Tevatron Collider running or after the Tevatron Collider finishes in about 2011. For example, the…
Recent progress has been made in the numerical modelling of neutral microgel particles with a realistic, disordered structure. In this work we extend this approach to the case of co-polymerised microgels where a thermoresponsive polymer is…
We use an electric-dipole laser-driven transition to precisely measure the cyclotron-frequency ratios of the pairs $^{42}$Ca$^+$-$^{40}$Ca$^+$, $^{44}$Ca$^+$-$^{40}$Ca$^+$ and $^{48}$Ca$^+$-$^{40}$Ca$^+$ in a 7-tesla Penning trap. A single…
Most data gathered from high energy experiments at colliders are analyzed assuming that particles stable enough to not decay in the detector volume, and able to interact strongly or electromagnetically, must be electrons, muons, protons,…
In Penning traps electromagnetic forces are used to confine charged particles under well-controlled conditions for virtually unlimited time. Sensitive detection methods have been developed to allow observation of single stored ions. Various…
Nonrelativistic collision of proton and antiproton with hydrogen atom described by solving time-dependent Schrodinger equation numerically. Coulomb wave function discrete variable method (CWDVR) had been used to calculate electron wave…
The matter-antimatter asymmetry is one of the greatest challenges in the modern physics. The universe including this paper and even the reader him(her)self seems to be built up of ordinary matter only. Theoretically, the well-known…
Diagnosing core of supernova requires favor-dependent reconstruction of three species of neutrino spectra, \nu_e, \bar{\nu}_{e} and \nu_x (a collective notation for \nu_{\mu}, \bar{\nu}_{\mu}, \nu_{\tau}, and \bar{\nu}_{\tau}). We point out…

Antihydrogen, the simplest pure-antimatter atomic system, holds the promise of direct tests of matter-antimatter equivalence and CPT invariance, two of the outstanding unanswered questions in modern physics. Antihydrogen is now routinely…

Anti-protonic hydrogen and helium atoms are analyzed. Level shifts and width are expressed in terms of $\bar{p}$-nucleon sub-threshold scattering lengths and volumes. Experimental data are compared to results obtained from the 2009 version…
Antiprotons are produced at CERN by colliding a 26 GeV/c proton beam with a fixed target made of a 3 mm diameter, 55 mm length iridium core. The inherent characteristics of antiproton production involve extremely high energy depositions…
First ever measurements of the ratios of free cyclotron frequencies of heavy highly charged ions with Z>50 with relative uncertainties close to 1e-11 are presented. Such accurate measurements have become realistic due to the construction of…
