The validity of the Weak Equivalence Principle (WEP) as predicted by General Relativity has been tested up to astounding precision using ordinary matter. The lack hitherto of a stable source of a probe being at the same time electrically neutral, cold and stable enough to be measured has prevented highaccuracy testing of the WEP on anti-matter. [...]

Forming a pulsed beam of cold antihydrogen using charge-exchange with Rydberg positronium (Ps) is the goal of the AEḡIS collaboration, which aims to a first gravity measurement on neutral antimatter. Recently achieved results in Ps formation and laser spectroscopy in the main AEḡIS apparatus are summarized. [...]

We report on recent developments in positronium work in the frame of antihydrogen production through charge exchange in the AEgIS collaboration [1]. In particular, we present a new technique based on spatially imaging a cloud of positronium by collecting the positrons emitted by photoionization. [...]

Gravity and antimatter: the AEgIS experiment at CERN
/ Pagano, D (INFM, Brescia ; INFN, Pavia) ; Aghion, S (Bergen U. ; INFN, Milan) ; Amsler, C (Stefan Meyer Inst. Subatomare Phys.) ; Bonomi, G (INFM, Brescia ; INFN, Pavia) ; Brusa, R S (Trento U. ; TIFPA-INFN, Trento) ; Caccia, M (INFN, Milan ; Insubria U., Como) ; Caravita, R (CERN) ; Castelli, F (INFN, Milan ; Milan U.) ; Cerchiari, G (Heidelberg, Max Planck Inst.) ; Comparat, D (LAC, Orsay) et al.
From the experimental point of view, very little is known about the gravitational interaction between matter and antimatter. In particular, the Weak Equivalence Principle, which is of paramount importance for the General Relativity, has not yet been directly probed with antimatter. [...]

Towards the first measurement of matter-antimatter gravitational interaction

The AEgIS (Antimatter Experiment: Gravity, Interferometry, Spectroscopy) is a CERN based experiment with the central aim to measure directly the gravitational acceleration of antihydrogen. Antihydrogen atoms will be produced via charge exchange reactions which will consist of Rydberg-excited positronium atoms sent to cooled antiprotons within an electromagnetic trap. [...]

Compression of a mixed antiproton and electron non-neutral plasma to high densities
/ Aghion, Stefano (Milan Polytechnic ; INFN, Milan) ; Amsler, Claude (Stefan Meyer Inst. Subatomare Phys.) ; Bonomi, Germano (Brescia U. ; INFN, Pavia) ; Brusa, Roberto S (Trento U. ; INFN, Trento) ; Caccia, Massimo (INFN, Milan ; Insubria U., Como) ; Caravita, Ruggero (Genoa U. ; INFN, Genoa) ; Castelli, Fabrizio (INFN, Milan ; Milan U.) ; Cerchiari, Giovanni (Heidelberg, Max Planck Inst.) ; Comparat, Daniel (LAC, Orsay) ; Consolati, Giovanni (Milan Polytechnic ; INFN, Milan) et al.
We describe a multi-step “rotating wall” compression of a mixed cold antiproton–electron non-neutral plasma in a 4.46 T Penning–Malmberg trap developed in the context of the AEḡIS experiment at CERN. Such traps are routinely used for the preparation of cold antiprotons suitable for antihydrogen production. [...]

Velocity-selected production of 2$^3$S metastable positronium
/ AEgIS Collaboration
Positronium in the $2^3S$ metastable state exhibits a low electrical polarizability and a long lifetime (1140 ns) making it a promising candidate for interferometry experiments with a neutral matter-antimatter system. In the present work, $2^3S$ positronium is produced - in absence of electric field - via spontaneous radiative decay from the $3^3P$ level populated with a 205nm UV laser pulse. [...]
