** Making ultra-slow antiproton beams with RFQD and MUSASHI at CERN AD. [#c6d8a10f]

The preparation of large samples of antiprotons at extremely low energy
is an important step on the road to synthesizing antihydrogen 
(pe+) and antiprotonic atoms (pA+).

The CERN Antiproton Decelerator (AD) decelerates antiprotons with 
GeV-scale kinetic energy to 5.3 MeV, and re-ejects them every 90-120 sec 
in 100 ns long pulses, containing some 3 x 10^7 particles. 
This beam energy is, however, still far above the 10 keV range at which
antiprotons can readily be captured and cooled in electromagnetic traps.

We replaced ordinary simple degrader foils to reduce antiproton energy
by a Radio Frequency Quadrupole Decelerator (RFQD).
This substantial decelerator, 4 meters in length, reduced the 5.3 MeV AD
beam energy between 10 and 120 keV. 
Some (5--9) x 10^6 antiprotons within a single shot
fulfilled the phase condition
necessary for acceptance and deceleration by the RFQD, 
the remainder being transmitted without deceleration.
We expected that the reduced antiproton energy would allow a much larger
number of
the emerging antiprotons to be captured in a trap placed after
the RFQD  than is normally the case for simple degrader foils. For these
experiments we used a multiring trap (MRT)
comprised of several ring electrodes lying perpendicular to the beam and
on the axis of
a superconducting solenoid at 10 K.

Antiprotons from the RFQD were trapped and cooled in this electro-magnetic trap.

*** [[Ultra-Slow antiproton beam transport line]] [#n9dfdc84]

After the cooling, antiprotons were extracted from the trap and transported to experimental chambers via this transport beam line.
