Abstract

A new coherent laser multi-pulse technique is proposed to measure the population of the individual metastable state of antiprotonic helium `atomcules' and to control the decay kinetics in the adjacent transition chains. In particular, the method allows one to check up the mechanisms of quenching of high-energy states.
