CERN physicists figured out how to study antimatter by cooling it with a laser
Antimatter on the atomic scale is identical to normal matter. The difference is that it has an opposite charge. Therefore when the two meet, they annihilate each other. It is difficult to produce and even harder to analyze because of this property.Researchers in CERN’s ALPHA (Antihydrogen Laser Physics Apparatus) at the University of British Columbia […]
