AMS-Shuttle test for antimatter stars in our Galaxy

Abstract

The AMS--Shuttle experiment is shown to be sensitive to test the hypothesis on the existence of antimatter globular cluster in our Galaxy. The hypothesis follows from the analysis of possible tests for the mechanisms of baryosynthesis and uses antimatter domains in the matter dominated Universe as the probe for the physics underlying the origin of the matter. The total mass for the antimatter objects in our Galaxy is fixed from the below by the condition of antimatter domain survival in the matter dominated Universe and from above by the observed gamma ray flux. For this mass interval the expected fluxes of antinuclei can lead to up to ten antihelium events in the AMS-Shuttle experiment.
