While the production of larger quantities of antihydrogen used to take weeks years ago, a single night is now sufficient.

This process works best when the antiprotons and positrons have very low kinetic energies (temperatures) when combined. If the energy is too high, many antiatoms will be escape the trap. So, it is ...
