Antimatter is one of the most fascinating and difficult concepts to handle in modern physics. It behaves like a mirror of ordinary matter, but with opposite loads. For example, where a proton has a positive charge, its equivalent in antimatter, antiproton, has a negative charge. This peculiarity causes both, when coming in contact, to be annihilated by releasing energy, which makes its manipulation and study an extremely delicate task. What exac…
World’s Costliest Substance Gets a Ride: Antimatter Transport Feat Achieved by CERN
Scientists at CERN have developed a unique container capable of transporting antimatter outside of the laboratory setting. This is the first time antimatter has been transported by road, which might significantly accelerate research into one of the universe’s most mysterious substances. The feat was documented in a Nature article titled Proton transfer from CERN’s antimatter factory. A two-meter-long containment unit was manufactured and transpo…
