Abstract

The AEḡIS collaboration’s main goal is to measure the acceleration of antihydrogen (H¯) due to gravity. The experimental scheme is to form a pulsed beam whose vertical deflection is then measured by means of a moiré deflectometer [1]. Creating pulsed H¯ is crucial since it allows a velocity measurement of the antiatoms via time of flight (ToF) necessary to deduce the gravitational acceleration ḡ from the vertical deflection Δs. The aim of this article is to outline the experimental protocol leading up to pulsed antihydrogen production in the AEḡIS experiment
