摘要
We have employed a laser resonance method to study the interactions of individual states of metastable antiprotonic atomcules <(p)over bar He+> with surrounding H-2 molecules. We have found that the lifetimes of the (n,l) = (37,34) and (39,35) states are shortened by small admixtures of H-2 molecules in quite different ways; the observed quenching cross section for the upper (39,35) state in helium medium at I bar and 30 K is (2.4+/-1.0) x 10(-15) cm(2), a factor of 24 larger than that for the lower (37,34) state.
