Scientists from the university's College of Science have created and measured the properties of antihydrogen for the first time. Using super-cooling techniques, they reduced particles' energy ...

With antimatter, the electric charges are the other way round. Take antihydrogen, which is the antimatter version of hydrogen, used in the Cern experiments. It has a negatively charged proton ...

In a paper published today in Nature, the ALPHA collaboration at CERN’s Antimatter Factory, which includes academics from The University of Manchester, shows that within the precision of their ...

the deceleration and cooling of the positrons for subsequent formation and trapping of cold antihydrogen or positronium atoms. But still, ultra-strong lasers (in particular when table-top in size ...

An artist's conceptual rendering of antihydrogen atoms falling out the bottom of the magnetic trap of the ALPHA-g apparatus. As the antihydrogen atoms escape, they touch the chamber walls and ...

Two experimental methods are described for measuring the gravitational force on electrons falling through vertical metal tubes. A third method is being devised to study the fall of positrons. You ...

According to the Standard Model of particle physics, antinuclei should be an extremely small component of the cosmic rays measured by AMS-02. However, excesses of antideuterons (antihydrogen-2), ...

Visiting the antimatter factory at CERN in Geneva. The factory contained ELENA, a deceleration ring called the Extra Low ENergy Antiproton. This has enabled the scientists to trap antihydrogen (the ...
