New antimatter trapping method to provide 'a major experimental advantage'

Monday, January 7, 2013 - 10:00 in Physics & Chemistry

Researchers have proposed a method for cooling trapped antihydrogen which they believe could provide 'a major experimental advantage' and help to map the mysterious properties of antimatter that have to date remained elusive. The new method could cool trapped antihydrogen atoms to temperatures 25 times colder than already achieved, making them much more stable and a lot easier to experiment on.
