Abstract

We precisely calculated the energy levels and the Auger decay rates of the antiprotonic helium atoms with the coupled rearrangement channel method and the complex-coordinate-rotation method. Calculated transition frequencies were in excellent agreement with observed values. This agreement gives best limit of the antiproton mass with 5 × 10^-8 uncertainty.
