The ASACUSA collaboration at CERN has previously measured the optical transition frequencies of antiprotonic helium to a precision of <1 part in 108 by laser spectroscopy. We describe some recent theoretical and experimental developmental work carried out by our collaboration to further improve the experimental precision.

At CERN‘s Antiproton Decelerator (AD) facility, the Atomic Spectroscopyand Collisions Using Slow Antiprotons (ASACUSA) collaboration is carrying out precise laser spectroscopy experiments on antiprotonic helium (p̅He+ ≡ p̅+He2++e−) atoms. By employing buffer-gas cooling techniquesin a cryogenic gas target, samples of atoms were cooled to temperatureT = 1.5–1.7 K, thereby reducing the Doppler width in the single-photon resonance lines. By comparing the results with three-body quantum electrodynamics calculations, the antiproton-to-electron mass ratio was determined as Mp̅/me = 1836.1526734(15). This agreed with the known proton-to-electron mass ratio with a precision of 8 . 1010. Further improvements in the experimental precision are currently being attempted. The high-quality antiproton beam provided by the future Extra Low Energy Antiproton Ring (ELENA) facility should further increase the experimental precision.

Laser spectroscopy of an antiprotonic helium ([Formula: see text]He+) atom, a neutral three-body Coulomb system consisting of an antiproton, a helium nucleus, and an electron has so far contributed to the determination of antiproton mass and charge to a precision of 10-8. Recently, we have succeeded in producing long-lived (τ [Formula: see text] 100 ns) antiprotonic helium ions (two-body system: [Formula: see text]He++). This was done by stopping ∼50 keV antiprotons decelerated by using an "inverse linac" (RFQD) in a very low-density helium gas target and selectively populating the ionic level by using laser tagging. It may be possible to use this two-body ion for future high-precision work.PACS Nos.: 36.10.–k, 34.90.+q, 25.43.+t
