  Since the beginning of operations of the CERN Antiproton Decelerator in July
2000, the successful deceleration, storage and manipulation of antiprotons has
led to remarkable progress in the production of antimatter. The ATHENA
Collaboration were the first to create and detect cold antihydrogen in 2002,
and we can today produce large enough amounts of antiatoms to study their
properties as well as the parameters that govern their production rate.
