It won’t make its way into quantum computers, but it could help us understand why the universe is filled with matter.

CERN scientists have analyzed a particle of antimatter isolated in an undecided quantum state known as a superposition for the first time. While the quantum behavior of ordinary matter has been ...

In a breakthrough for antimatter research, the BASE collaboration at CERN has kept an antiproton—the antimatter counterpart of a proton—oscillating smoothly between two different quantum states for ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Eight years ago, scientists with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02) collaboration detected an unusual number of antihelium ...

For the first time, researchers have developed a way to create chilled molecules containing the radioactive element radium.

Scientists studying the tracks of particles streaming from six billion collisions of atomic nuclei at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) -- an 'atom smasher' that recreates the conditions of ...

In its second antimatter breakthrough this month, CERN announced it successfully created the first-ever antimatter qubit, paving the way to even weirder quantum experiments. Reading time 3 minutes ...

Why does the universe contain matter and (virtually) no antimatter? Scientists have achieved an experimental breakthrough in this context. It can contribute to measuring the mass and magnetic moment ...

A small amount of antimatter took to the road on Tuesday, representing the first time any quantity of the world’s most expensive, volatile and rare substance has been moved. The breakthrough opens the ...

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. Reading time 3 ...

Scientists at Europe’s atom-smashing lab say they can produce a steady stream of hydrogen antimatter, a breakthrough that opens the way to testing one of the conceptual cornerstones of physics. The ...
