Adiabatic expansion cooling of antihydrogen / ALPHA Collaboration
Magnetically trapped antihydrogen atoms can be cooled by expanding the volume of the trap in which they are confined. We report a proof-of-principle experiment in which antiatoms are deliberately released from expanded and static traps. [...]

Measurements of Penning-Malmberg trap patch potentials and associated performance degradation / ALPHA Collaboration
Antiprotons created by laser ionization of antihydrogen are observed to rapidly escape the ALPHA trap. Further, positron plasmas heat more quickly after the trap is illuminated by laser light for several hours. [...]

Observation of the effect of gravity on the motion of antimatter / ALPHA Collaboration
Einstein’s general theory of relativity from 19151 remains the most successful description of gravitation. From the 1919 solar eclipse2 to the observation of gravitational waves3, the theory has passed many crucial experimental tests. [...]

Measurement of the inclusive semileptonic $B$ meson branching fraction in 62.8 fb$^{-1}$ of Belle II data / Belle-II Collaboration
We report a measurement of the branching fraction of inclusive semileptonic $B$ meson decays $B\to X_c\ell\nu\ell$ in $\Upsilon(4S)\to B\bar B$~data recorded by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider and corresponding to 62.8 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity.

Exclusive $B \to X_u \ell \nu_\ell$ Decays with Hadronic Full-event-interpretation Tagging in 62.8 fb$^{-1}$ of Belle II Data / Belle-II Collaboration
We present a reconstruction in early data of the semileptonic decay $B^+ \to \pi^0 \ell^+ \nu_\ell$, and first results of a reconstruction of the decays $B^+ \to \rho^0 \ell^+ \nu_\ell$ and $B^0 \to \rho^- \ell^+ \nu_\ell$ in a sample corresponding to 62.8 fb$^{-1}$ of Belle II data using hadronic $B$-tagging via the full-event-interpretation algorithm.

Design and performance of a novel low energy multispecies beamline for an antihydrogen experiment / ALPHA Collaboration
The ALPHA Collaboration, based at the CERN Antiproton Decelerator, has recently implemented a novel beamline for low-energy ($\lesssim$ 100 eV) positron and antiproton transport between cylindrical Penning traps that have strong axial magnetic fields. Here, we describe how a combination of semianalytical and numerical calculations were used to optimise the layout and design of this beamline. [...]

Search for Darkonium in $e^+e^-$ Collisions / BABAR Collaboration
Collider searches for dark sectors, new particles interacting only feebly with ordinary matter, have largely focused on identifying signatures of new mediators, leaving much of dark sector structures unexplored. In particular, the existence of dark matter bound states (darkonia) remains to be investigated. [...]

Sympathetic cooling of positrons to cryogenic temperatures for antihydrogen production / Baker, C J (Swansea U.) ; Bertsche, W (Manchester U. ; Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci. Tech. ; Liverpool U.) ; Capra, A (TRIUMF) ; Cesar, C L (Rio de Janeiro Federal U.) ; Charlton, M (Swansea U.) ; Mathad, A Cridland (Swansea U.) ; Eriksson, S (Swansea U.) ; Evans, A (Calgary U.) ; Evetts, N (British Columbia U.) ; Fabbri, S (Manchester U.) et al.
The positron, the antiparticle of the electron, predicted by Dirac in 1931 and discovered by Anderson in 1933, plays a key role in many scientific and everyday endeavours. Notably, the positron is a constituent of antihydrogen, the only long-lived neutral antimatter bound state that can currently be synthesized at low energy, presenting a prominent system for testing fundamental symmetries with high precision.

Laser cooling of antihydrogen atoms / ALPHA Collaboration
The photon—the quantum excitation of the electromagnetic field—is massless but carries momentum. A photon can therefore exert a force on an object upon collision1. [...]

Investigation of the fine structure of antihydrogen / ALPHA Collaboration
At the historic Shelter Island Conference on the Foundations of Quantum Mechanics in 1947, Willis Lamb reported an unexpected feature in the fne structure of atomic hydrogen: a separation of the 2S$_{1/2}$ and 2P$_{1/2}$ states1. The observation of this separation, now known as the Lamb shift, marked an important event in the evolution of modern physics, inspiring others to develop the theory of quantum electrodynamics2–5.
