阿尔法装置被设计用来产生和捕获反氢原子。该装置包括一个多功能潘宁阱和一个超导中性原子阱，具有最小B组态。原子阱的特点是横向约束的八极磁铁和纵向约束的螺线管镜线圈。磁阱采用了快速关闭系统，以最大限度地提高检测到释放的反氢湮灭的可能性。在这篇文章中，我们描述了第一次尝试观察反氢捕获。
The ALPHA apparatus is designed to produce and trap antihydrogen atoms. The de- vice comprises a multifunction Penning trap and a superconducting, neutral atom trap having a minimum-B configuration. The atom trap features an octupole magnet for transverse confinement and solenoidal mirror coils for longitudinal confinement. The magnetic trap employs a fast shut- down system to maximize the probability of detecting the annihilation of released antihydrogen. In this article we describe the first attempts to observe antihydrogen trapping.
