That said, the quantities needed for this kind of device (10 −13 gram of antimatter, or 10 11 anti-hydrogen atoms) are definitely more feasible than those required for pure antimatter weapons.

The antimatter bomb described in Dan Brown's book Angels and Demons is close to becoming reality as scientists at CERN have created antimatter.

Professor Doser leads a team studying this strange, expensive, explosive stuff in the wonderfully named Antimatter Factory. Here they create and capture this bizarre anti-stuff.

CERN is the only place on Earth that manufactures antimatter particles via high-energy collisions. Just a tiny amount of antimatter is capable of generating an explosion equivalent to a nuclear bomb.

Physicists have created the heaviest clumps of antimatter particles ever seen. Known as antihyperhydrogen-4, this strange stuff could help us solve some of the most puzzling physics mysteries.

To them, studying anti-hydrogen atoms is the first step toward testing some of the deepest hypotheses about nature, which hold that antimatter should look and behave identically to ordinary matter.

Moreover, the specific impulse from antimatter engines could theoretically reach a whopping 20 million meters per second, which the researchers say could make "interstellar propulsion a goal ...

It seems there isn’t a sci-fi part if the universe in which everything is made of antimatter. Antimatter: we cracked how gravity affects it – here’s what it means for our understanding of ...

We know that every particle has an antimatter companion that is virtually identical to itself, but with the opposite charge. When a particle and its antiparticle meet, they annihilate each other ...
