Leptonic annihilation in hydrogen-antihydrogen collisions

Piotr Froelich, S. Jonsell, Alejandro Sáenz +3 more

We consider the question of competition between leptonic and hadronic annihilation in matter-antimatter interaction. The rate of direct positron-electron annihilation in cold hydrogen-antihydrogen collisions has been calculated. The presence of leptonic annihilation introduces an absorptive, imaginary component to the hydrogen-antihydrogen scattering length; this component is $1.4\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}4}\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{a.u.}$ for the singlet state of the leptonic spins, and $1.2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}7}\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{a.u.}$ for the triplet state. Leptonic annihilation is shown to be about 3 orders of magnitude slower than proton-antiproton annihilation.

Radiative association of atomic hydrogen with antihydrogen at subkelvin temperatures

Bernard Zygelman, Alejandro Sáenz, Piotr Froelich +2 more

Partial and total cross sections for the radiative association process $\mathrm{H}+\mathrm{H}\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}}\mathrm{H}\mathrm{H}\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}+h\ensuremath{\nu}$ in the sub-Kelvin temperature regime are reported. We calculate the emission spectra for this process and suggest its utility as a diagnostic. The cross section for radiative association is found to have the value $\ensuremath{\sigma}=6.85\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}22} {\mathrm{cm}}^{2}/\sqrt{T}$, where T is an effective temperature. It is significantly smaller than the in-flight annihilation and fragmentation cross sections. We discuss the role that radiative association plays in the formation of a quasibound system of the $\mathrm{H}\mathrm{H}\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}$ molecule.
