Anti-hydrogen

The simplest anti-atom: the anti-hydrogen nucleus is an antiproton, around which one single antielectron orbits. Its properties are studied in details at CERN, in the Antiproton Decelerator (AD) facility: very low energy antiprotons and anti-electrons are combined and stored in magnetic traps in the center of experiments which verify if the laws of physics are the same as for atoms.
