Abstract
Initial distributions of metastable antiprotonic and atoms over principal () and angular momentum () quantum numbers have been deduced using laser spectroscopy experiments. The regions and in the two atoms account for almost all of the observed fractions [ and ] of antiprotons captured into metastable states.
