Explore antimatter's explosive potential as the most powerful energy in the universe. Learn about its production, groundbreaking research, and future applications.
In quantum mechanics, pairs of particles — particles and antiparticles — blink in and out of existence. These particles usually cancel each other out. But Hawking argued that fluctuations of ...
A large violation in a type of charge carried by particles, called the baryon number. For example, protons and neutrons have a baryon number of 1 and their antiparticles carry a value of -1.
In the Big Bang, matter and antimatter should have been created in equal amounts. But fast forward 13.8 billion years to the present day, and the universe is made almost entirely of matter, so ...
Antimatter consists of antiparticles. These antiparticles have the same mass as ordinary particles but possess opposite charges and quantum spins. When an antiparticle encounters its corresponding ...
