Cold antihydrogen experiments and radial compression of antiproton clouds in the ALPHA apparatus at CERN

Antihydrogen is the simplest neutral antimatter atom. Precision comparisons between hydrogen and antihydrogen would provide stringent tests of CPT (charge conjugation/parity transformation/time reversal) invariance and the weak equivalence principle. In the last few years, the ALPHA collaboration ha...
