摘要
The behaviour of the cross-sections for antihydrogen formation in collisions of antiprotons with excited state positronium is discussed and relevant scaling laws are presented. The feasibility of observing this process using the production of excited state positronium by resonant excitation with laser light is described. Large enhancements in the rate of antihydrogen formation (for unit antiproton flux) over the case for ground state positrinium are predicted. © 1990.
