Antimatter; antihydrogen; precision measurements

4 questions

  1. Rotating-wall density ceiling and heating limits for dense cryogenic positron plasmas in Penning–Malmberg traps

  2. The zero-field ground-state hyperfine splitting of antihydrogen and the unobserved antiproton spin-flip transition

  3. Residual-gas collisions and collisional heating as the limit of long-term magnetic confinement of antihydrogen: quantitative characterization of the background gas and heating rates in the trapping region

  4. Limits of evaporative cooling of trapped antiproton plasmas: the net-heating budget, the lowest attainable temperature, and the demonstration of sub-Kelvin nonneutral antiproton plasmas
