  • First Antiprotons caught in ALPHA 2

    First Antiprotons caught in ALPHA 2

    The first antiprotons were caught last night in the new ALPHA 2 catching trap, the first component of the next generation of the ALPHA experiment to be installed. This is the representation of the first 'hot dump' — where we release the captured antiprotons, allowing them to annihilate on the surrounding apparatus. The annihilation converts
