摘要: Using a classical Monte Carlo method, we have computed the three-body recombination (two free electrons and proton scattering into one electron hydrogen atom: e+e+p{yields} H+e) in strong magnetic fields. The is allowed its full motion whereas of given by guiding center approximation. We investigate for temperatures fields similar to those used recent experiments that generated anti-hydrogen. When has same temperature as electrons, rate more elaborate equations roughly 60% larger than B{yields}{infinity} decreases speed approaches thermal speed; variation this implications directionality anti-atoms formed experiments. report on several properties atoms
