Barbara Latacz, a member of the BASE team at CERN, adjusting the BASE experiment's cryostat. The new device can cool an ...

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 ...

A special particle trap designed to fit in a truck let researchers haul 70 protons across the CERN campus. Antiprotons may be next.

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

Taken in 2023, these results show preliminary plots of the antiproton's production cross section—the probability that antiprotons are produced when a beam of protons interacts with a helium target.

Subatomic particles of the same mass as a proton but having a negative electric charge and oppositely directed magnetic moment, antiprotons are the antiparticles of protons. Even though they are ...

These antiprotons are produced by colliding particles together in Cern's accelerators. They arrive at the antimatter lab along pipes at speeds that are close to the speed of light. This is much ...

Because WIMPs are very heavy, it is possible that these annihilations create antinuclei – the antimatter version of nuclei comprising antiprotons and antineutrons. Some of these antinuclei could make ...

Scientists and journalists share a core belief in questioning, observing and verifying to reach the truth. Science News reports on crucial research and discovery across science disciplines. We ...
