The existence of the antideuteron is granted if the forces acting between an antiproton and an antineutron are identical to the forces acting between a proton and a neutron. ...

... Functional determinant is tricky. Roughly it should be 1/ det A with A the quadratic form appearing in the action. First get rid of the modes which are pure gauge, and the honest zero modes. There is still a problem, det A is infinite — too many short-distance modes. It reflects the infinite vacuum ...
