CERN Summer Student Programme at the H-Beam, ASACUSA

The ASACUSA (Atomic Spectroscopy And Collisions Using Slow Antiprotons) collaboration opperates experiments at the Antiproton Decelerator (AD) at CERN. One of the goals is testing of CPT symmetry breaking by investigating the Ground State Hyperfine Splitting (GS-HFS) of antihydrogen (\={H}), and comparing to that of hydrogen (H). The experiments are undertaken at the H-Beam and H-Bar experimental areas respectively and are both based on the Rabi-Spectroscopy method, but adapted for the respective experimental requirements. Being involved with the H-Beam experiment I will focus this report on the measurements undertaken on hydrogen, of which the aim is to measure the resonance frequencies of the Sigma ($\sigma$$_{1}$) and Pi ($\pi$$_{1}$) transitions within zero magnetic fields, an extension of the Ph.D. project of Martin Diermaier \cite{MDiermaier}
