Development of an Antimatter Chemistry Network

In this presentation we survey antimatter collisional and radiative processes with the purpose of optimizing formation of the antihydrogen atom, anion, cation and molecular species. We draw inspiration and knowledge from studies of the early Universe hydrogen chemistry, where future antimatter production capabilities will soon meet these conditions. Using modern atomic physics techniques, it should be feasible to control antimatter in the laboratory to facilitate antimatter chemistry and enhance production rates. Here we summarize what is known from hydrogen chemistry that is of relevance for antimatter production and to indicate, based upon possible reaction rates, which processes may be fruitful to pursue to create new antimatter entities, and which processes to discount noting experimental capabilities.
