The ATHENA experiment has made the first observation of cold antihydrogen atoms. The red blocks measured in the experiment's caesium iodide calorimeter indicate photons from the positron annihilation. The yellow lines correspond to charged particles from the antiproton annihilation. These are detected by silicon detectors (pink) and the calorimeter (yellow blocks).
