AEgIS experiment’s main goal is to measure the local gravitational acceleration of antihydrogen¯g and thus perform a direct test of the weak equivalence principle with antimatter. In the first phase of the experiment the aim is to measure ¯g with 1% relative
precision. This paper presents the antihydrogen production method and a description of
some components of the experiment, which are necessary for the gravity measurement.
Current status of the AE¯gIS experimental apparatus is presented and recent commissioning
results with antiprotons are outlined. In conclusion we discuss the short-term
goals of the AE¯gIS collaboration that will pave the way for the first gravity measurement
in the near future.
