Researchers put a portable antimatter containment system through its paces at CERN — plus, the maths of a black hole fly-by.

Scientists have successfully relocated protons outside of an antimatter laboratory with the help of an autonomous, open Penning trap. This breakthrough marks a significant step toward transporting ...

Antimatter was first discovered in 1928 by physicist Paul Dirac, but it wasn't through any experiment. Instead, he was working to blend the theories of quantum mechanics with special relativity. When ...

Why is there any matter in the universe? A new antimatter breakthrough at LHC holds clues. At one-one-thousandth of a second after the Big Bang, the great annihilation event should have wiped out ...

Researchers at the Large Hadron Collider found evidence of an unprecedentedly heavy and exotic form of antimatter in the ...

The discovery of the new antihypernucleus could help scientists better understand the state of the universe just a millionth ...

The BASE team’s solution was to develop a device that can transport trapped antiprotons on a truck for substantial distances. It is this device, known as BASE-STEP (for Symmetry Tests in Experiments ...

Borrowing from industry, the team has created its vertexing detector using an array of modified mobile-phone camera sensors ...

Why matter dominates over antimatter in our universe has long been a major cosmic mystery to physicists. A new finding by the ...

Protons are the basic building blocks of matter. Together with neutrons, they form atomic nuclei. These minute, positively ...
