Quantum suppression of antihydrogen formation in positronium-antiproton scattering

The intriguing behaviour of positronium scattering has its role in antimatter studies. Here the authors have predicted the quantum suppression of the cross-section for antihydrogen formation in positronium scattering with antiprotons, by including the excited states and using convergent close-coupli...
