Hi all.
Looks like my hunch maybe 6 months or more ago was essentially right and antimatter can indeed be entangled.
On a drive here (alas not working) I have a partial draft of a paper which links entangled antimatter with
gravity, possibly showing a way to build a device that might finally prove antimatter has weak
negative gravitation (see WP post) which would also solve two different problems in physics at the same time.
Unbelievable that the physicist who originally came up with the concept was discounted out of hand in 2011.
Fortunately it appears that I can recover it from a handwritten notes backup but I can send the drive for recovery
if its really significant: rewriting the paper now.
Other researchers also mentioned "Dirac holes" and recently I started work on a variant using reverse quantum wells
as an antimatter trap using a positron emitting isotope as the source and a hole enriched material to form a diode
but its still in the preliminary stages.
Not sure if it will lead anywhere but still worth a try. Negative engineering anyone?
Also relevant: this page appeared a few days ago.

Have you got a link to the original research paper? I don't subscribe to New Scientist.
