Production and excitation of cold Ps for anti-H formation by charge exchange: towards a gravitational measurement on antimatter
… goal of measuring for the first time the gravitational pull on neutral antimatter. The envisioned method consists in producing a beam of cold anti-hydrogen and measuring the deflection of its free fall by means of a Moiré deflectometer. To do so the pulsed production of abundant cold …

The Connection Between X-Ray Binaries and Star Clusters in the Andromeda Galaxy
… a neutron star or black hole. The intense gravitational pull of the compact object leads to the accretion of material from the companion star, which due to friction heats up so much that it emits high-energy X-ray photons. Previous studies have shown that most stars, including XRBs, form in …
