Utilizing the two-center convergent close-coupling method, we find a several order of magnitude enhancement in the formation of antihydrogen via antiproton scattering with …
The two-center convergent close-coupling method is used to calculate antihydrogen (H¯) formation via positronium (Ps) scattering on antiprotons (p¯) at near threshold energies. For …

The creation of cold antihydrogen atoms by the controlled combination of positrons and antiprotons has opened up a new window on fundamental physics. More recently …
We investigate the consequences of unexpectedly large elastic cross sections for the scattering of low-energy antiprotons from n≤ 3 positronium (Ps) on the experimental …
