A theoretical calculation also shows most of antihydrogen atoms to cascade down to the ground state in CUSP trap for subsequent use in a variety of experiments. The cusp trap consists of a magnetic quadrupole (cusp) field formed by a pair of superconducting solenoids (antihelmholtz coil) together with an electrostatic field.
