Flawing CERN antihydrogen-experiments with the available H-spectrum

arXiv:physics/0502074

Abstract

Solving the antiH-problem could well be of historical interest but a solution must be unambiguous. We use already available and accurate spectral evidence to contradict and even to flaw the current CERN antiH-experiments, set up to unravel this antiH-mystery. Making antiH with a long-range interaction between e+ and p- is impossible, since this mass-asymmetrical pair of charge-conjugated antiparticles is confined to a bound state at close-range. This resembles the short- and long-range quark behavior in QCD. A real solution for antiH will therefore require a different approach.
