Physicists working at the CERN particle physics lab said they detected a slight but significant difference in how particles ...

Although our universe is mostly normal matter, antimatter isn’t so hard to create — supernovae, black holes, and even bananas can make it.

The only positively charged particle known in the 1920s, the proton, was quickly ruled out due to its much greater mass. Dirac stuck to his equation and finally postulated the existence of ...

In 1932, physicists glimpsed antimatter for the first time — a strange mirror image of regular matter with mind-bending potential. Nearly a century later, this ghostly substance could someday fuel a ...

Science Space cern space travel Antimatter rockets could make interstellar travel a reality with 300x more powerful propulsion The numbers check out but more research is needed -- much more By Zo ...

I reach CERN’s Antimatter Factory at 8 a.m. sharp. My first memory of hearing about antimatter is in the 2009 movie Angels and Demons. In the movie, the bad guys steal from this very lab a small ...

New images show the rapidly rotating pulsar of the "Guitar Nebula" shooting out a gigantic cosmic plume of plasma, X-rays and supercharged particles spinning along a magnetic field line in ...

Two new studies highlight the enigmatic nature of antimatter, revealing its potential role in both understanding the universe's origins and unlocking the secrets of particle physics.

The heaviest antimatter nucleus to date was spotted in a particle accelerator. It could provide new insights into the nature of matter.

Since the Dirac equation indicated the existence of antimatter in 1928, scientists have discovered only six types of antimatter (hyper)nuclei over nearly a century.
