The TRAP experiment, also known as PS196, operated at the Proton Synchrotron facility of the Low Energy Antiproton Ring (LEAR) at CERN, Geneva, from 1985 to 1996. Its main goal was to compare the mass of an antiproton and a proton by trapping these particles in the penning traps. The TRAP collaboration also measured and compared the charge-to-mass ratios of antiproton and proton. Although the data-taking period ended in 1996, the analysis of datasets continued until 2006. __FORCETOC__
