The LHCb experiment at CERN has uncovered a fundamental asymmetry in the behavior of baryons. During the Moriond Conference in Italy, the LHCb collaboration at CERN announced that a new ...

Physicists have made a landmark discovery, uncovering the first clear evidence that matter particles, known as baryons, ...

CERN scientists at the world’s largest particle accelerator have made a unique antimatter breakthrough, which they believe could crack open the mystery behind the Big Bang itself. The discovery, ...

Charge-parity violation is thought to explain why there’s more matter than antimatter in the universe. Scientists just spotted it in a new place.

That poses a problem for physicists: if matter and antimatter both were created equally in the Big Bang and behaved in the same way, as most physical laws suppose, then it’s difficult to explain ...

"We needed a machine like the LHC capable of producing a large enough number of beauty baryons and their antimatter counterparts, and we needed an experiment at that machine capable of pinpointing ...

According to the standard model of cosmology, in the aftermath of the Big Bang, the young cosmos was a roiling plasma broth of matter and antimatter particles that popped into existence and ...

A new estimate of the ghostly particle’s maximum possible mass brings physicists a tad closer to understanding the universe.

But there’s a small problem: the universe should be pure emptiness. The laws of physics dictate that the same amount of matter and antimatter were created in the Big Bang. This wasn’t the case because ...

CERN scientists have built a 3840 MPixel detector using mobile camera sensors to track antihydrogen's fall in gravity. This could revolutionize antimatter experiments with real-time, ultra-high ...

“We needed a machine like the LHC capable of producing a large enough number of beauty baryons and their antimatter counterparts, and we needed an experiment at that machine capable of pinpointing ...
