Quantum Magic

In a recent STFC newsletter, UK news from CERN, Dr Stephen Hogan describes how he, and a team of international collaborators are investigating the properties of antimatter. The AEGIS experiment at the Antiproton Decelerator, in CERN has been designed to exploit techniques Stephen developed to accelerate antihydrogen atoms in excited states; to transport them and make beams suitable for measurements of the acceleration of antimatter in the Earth's gravitational field.

Evidence for a T-Shape Break-Up Pattern in the Triple Photoionization of Li

Evidence for a T-Shape Break-Up Pattern in the Triple Photoionization of Li

According to Wannier's law, when a single photon is absorbed with energy just above the fragmentation threshold, the electrons in a multi-electron atom break-up in the most symmetric way.
