Abstract
The development of the first continuous coherent source at 121.56 nm is des cribed. Radiation at this wavelength of Lyman-alpha can be used for laser-c ooling of antihydrogen on the strong 1S-2P transition. It also opens up a p ossibility for precision spectroscopy that requires just a few antihydrogen atoms.
