"Just the concept that you can make an anti-atom, an atom made of antimatter, is a real gee-whiz thing," says Chris Quigg, at Fermilab, near Chicago. "Anybody has to be impressed by that." ...

Frozen antimatter study to 'alter our understanding' of the universe. Researchers have for the first time slowed down an antimatter atom using lasers to more precisely study this physical phenomena.

CERN traps antimatter for long enough to do serious science on it ... In three tries, they also saw a single antihydrogen atom make it to 2,000 seconds, or over a half-hour.

The kind of antimatter CERN makes for the experiment is antihydrogen, a mirror image of hydrogen, which is the smallest known atom. Because it is composed of so few parts, it’s the easiest ...

Matter and antimatter particles are behaving differently inside a giant atom smasher in Switzerland, physicists announced today (April 24). The discovery could help solve the riddle of why the ...

Publishing in Nature today, physicists working on a CERN experiment called ALPHA have measured new properties of antihydrogen, the antimatter twin of the hydrogen atom.In contrast with hydrogen ...
