Collisions of Light Produce Matter and Antimatter From Pure Energy Study demonstrates a long-predicted process for generating matter directly from light — plus evidence that…
Radioactive molecules are sensitive to subtle nuclear phenomena and might help physicists probe the violation of the most fundamental symmetries of nature. Imagine a dust…
A team of physicists, including the University of Warwick, have proved that a subatomic particle can switch into its antiparticle alter-ego and back again, in…
Antimatter is believed to play a huge part in the story of our universe. It’s the counterpart to matter: identical in every way – with…
The result opens the door to considerably more precise studies of the response of antimatter to light and of how it behaves under the influence…
Researchers with the CERN-based ALPHA collaboration have announced the world’s first laser-based manipulation of antimatter, leveraging a made-in-Canada laser system to cool a sample of…
Stars, galaxies, and everything in the universe, including our own bodies, are comprised of so-called regular matter. Regular matter includes atoms and molecules, which are…
Recently discovered ripples of spacetime called gravitational waves could contain evidence to prove the theory that life survived the Big Bang because of a phase…
Lack of symmetry in qubits can’t fix errors in quantum computing, but might explain matter/antimatter imbalance. Unexpected twist in the Kibble-Zurek theory offers a new…
