Quick History • The Fermilab Antiproton Source was built for the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider program in the 1980’s • Key to Tevatron total integrated luminosity • While Fermilab ran fixed target programs, the Antiproton Source would have sat idle except for the Charmonium program (E760/E835) which ran in 1990-1, 1996-7 & 2000 • Circulating antiprotons with internal Hydrogen gas jet target • Study of pbar-p annihilations into cbar-c states QWG5 -- DESY -- Gollwitzer
