Abstract

The GBAR experiment aims to measure the gravitational acceleration of antihydrogen H. It will use H ⁺ ions formed by the interaction of antiprotons with a dense positronium cloud, which will require about 10¹⁰ positrons to produce one H ⁺. We present the first results on the positron accumulation, reaching 3:8±0:4×10⁸ e⁺ collected in 560 s.
