Andrea Capra is an adjunct professor at York University, where he focuses on research related to antimatter and its properties. His work investigates the apparent absence of antimatter in the universe, a phenomenon that suggests fundamental gaps in current scientific understanding. Utilizing magnetically confined antihydrogen, which is the simplest anti-atom composed of an antiproton and a positron, he studies the differences between ordinary matter and antimatter within the electromagnetic and gravitational sectors. Capra is involved in pioneering research using the ALPHA apparatus at CERN, applying advanced nuclear particle physics techniques to the study of cold antihydrogen. His recent projects include HAICU at TRIUMF, aimed at developing the next generation of antihydrogen experiments by employing hydrogen proxies.
