The Antiproton Decelerator (AD) provides low-energy antiprotons mainly for studies of antimatter.
The Antiproton Decelerator will see refurbishment work that will help its experiments to trap more antimatter than before
The ALPHA collaboration has observed a new electronic transition in the antihydrogen atom
On Thursday 26 April 2018 at 4pm CEST, join the CERN Facebook live from our unique Antiproton Decelerator
The ALPHA experiment at CERN has measured a light-induced transition in antihydrogen with unprecedented precision
With the connection between ELENA and GBAR already in place, the commissioning of the decelerator with antiprotons is about to begin
What is the effect of gravity on antimatter? A new experiment at CERN is preparing to join the quest to find the answer to this question in physics
The GBAR experiment will create antihydrogen ions at rest to study the action of gravity upon antimatter
The commissioning of ELENA, a new antiproton deceleration ring, has begun
