The antiprotons have already successfully been decelerated and confined in a so-called Penning trap. Relocating the antiprotons to another laboratory that is many hundreds of kilometers away is a ...

Lifted by crane: The BASE-STEP autonomous Penning-trap system is moved to a lorry at CERN. Marcel Leonhardt (right), physicist at HHU, checks the status of the device and confinement of the protons on ...

Scientists have successfully relocated protons outside of an antimatter laboratory with the help of an autonomous, open Penning trap. This breakthrough marks a significant step toward transporting ...

"Our future research plans will include applying the demonstrated techniques to high-precision spectroscopy of single molecular hydrogen ions in our Penning trap apparatus," added König.

In strong magnetic fields, such as those present in Penning trap experiments, the particles might convert into electromagnetically interacting photons. Like a musician hitting a string of their ...

Double Penning trap used to measure the magnetic moment of the proton. The double Penning trap is made of gold-plated cylindrical trap electrodes; the individual trap electrodes are isolated from ...

Not a microscopic handful or an iota of particles; just one, caught in a Penning trap. They detected the thermal signal of ions (atoms or molecules with an uneven ratio of electrons to protons ...
