CERN successfully tested antimatter transport method using protons. BASE-STEP system will enable safe transport of ...

As a result, antimatter usually has a fleeting existence, meaning it's hard to make and even harder to study. CERN's ...

Antimatter might sound like something out of science fiction, but at the CERN Antiproton Decelerator (AD), scientists produce ...

The Low Energy Antiproton Ring (LEAR) decelerated and stored antiprotons for experiments. It was built in 1982 and operated until 1996, when it was converted into the Low Energy Ion Ring (LEIR), which ...

The accelerators available at the time were not powerful enough to produce these particles as two billion electron volts (eV) were required to create proton-antiproton pairs. The best way to do ...

When it comes to building particle accelerators the credo has always been “bigger, badder, better”. While the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with its 27 km circumference and €7.5 billion budget ...
