Antimatter was initially discovered in 1932 when physicist Carl David Anderson observed positrons—the antimatter form of an electron—in cosmic rays by passing them through a cloud chamber.

However, because it comprises just two point-like particles, the electron, and its antimatter counterpart, "it's a perfect system to do experiments with," says AEgIS spokesperson Ruggero Caravita ...

antimatter is a little less exotic than it appears on TV, but for a variety of reasons there hasn’t been nearly as much practical research done with it. There are well over 200 electron ...

Antimatter can produce more energy than anything else we know of, but it’s very fickle. A new field analysis explains what we need in order to progress with antimatter propulsion. While an antimatter ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) made its groundbreaking discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, but its ancestry can be traced ...

No material is more volatile than antimatter, which is made of particles of equal mass but opposite charge to normal matter, so things like anti-protons and positrons, which are the antimatter ...
