Fundamental Tests of Physics with Antihydrogen at ALPHA
/ Miranda, Daniel (UFRJ, Rio de Janeiro) ; Cesar, Claudio L (UFRJ, Rio de Janeiro) ; Sacramento, Rodrigo L (UFRJ, Rio de Janeiro) ; Ahmadi, Mostafa (U. Liverpool (main)) ; Nolan, Paul (U. Liverpool (main)) ; Pusa, Petteri (U.

Magnetically trapped antihydrogen atoms at low temperatures were used to test the charge neutrality of this antiatomic system, by precisely placing a limit to its electrical charge. A new method for measuring the gravitational interaction of antimatter was also developed, and prospects for making a precise measurement of this interaction are discussed. [...]

Limit on the electric charge of antihydrogen

(UC, Berkeley ; LBL, Berkeley) et al.
The ALPHA collaboration has successfully demonstrated the production and the confinement of cold antihydrogen, $\overline{\mathrm{H}}$. An analysis of trapping data allowed a stringent limit to be placed on the electric charge of the simplest antiatom. [...]

An improved limit on the charge of antihydrogen from stochastic acceleration
/ Ahmadi, M ; Baquero-Ruiz, M ; Bertsche, W ; Butler, E (CERN) ; Capra, A ; Carruth, C ; Cesar, C L ; Charlton, M ; Charman, A E ; Eriksson, S et al.
/ALPHA
Antimatter continues to intrigue physicists because of its apparent absence in the observable Universe. Current theory requires that matter and antimatter appeared in equal quantities after the Big Bang, but the Standard Model of particle physics offers no quantitative explanation for the apparent disappearance of half the Universe [...]

Silicon vertex detector upgrade in the ALPHA experiment
/ Amole, C (York U., Canada) ; Andresen, G.B (Aarhus U.) ; Ashkezari, M.D (Simon Fraser U.) ; Baquero-Ruiz, M (UC, Berkeley) ; Bertsche, W (Manchester U ; Cockcroft Inst. Accel. Sci.

The Silicon Vertex Detector (SVD) is the main diagnostic tool in the ALPHA-experiment. It provides precise spatial and timing information of antiproton (antihydrogen) annihilation events (vertices), and most importantly, the SVD is capable of directly identifying and analysing single annihilation events, thereby forming the basis of ALPHA ' s analysis.

An experimental limit on the charge of antihydrogen
/ ALPHA Collaboration
The properties of antihydrogen are expected to be identical to those of hydrogen, and any differences would constitute a profound challenge to the fundamental theories of physics. The most commonly discussed antiatom-based tests of these theories are searches for antihydrogen-hydrogen spectral differences (tests of CPT (charge-parity-time) invariance) or gravitational differences (tests of the weak equivalence principle). [...]

Using stochastic acceleration to place experimental limits on the charge of antihydrogen

Assuming hydrogen is charge neutral, CPT invariance demands that antihydrogen also be charge neutral. Quantum anomaly cancellation also demands that antihydrogen be charge neutral. [...]

Antihydrogen annihilation reconstruction with the ALPHA silicon detector

The ALPHA experiment has succeeded in trapping antihydrogen, a major milestone on the road to spectroscopic comparisons of antihydrogen with hydrogen. An annihilation vertex detector, which determines the time and position of antiproton annihilations, has been central to this achievement. [...]
