Today, particle physicists can routinely create antimatter for study at the CERN Antiproton Decelerator facility, which has led to several new breakthroughs in the characterization of antimatter.

For the first time, physicists at CERN have coaxed an antiproton — a mirror twin of the matter that makes up our world — into ...

”All of our observations find a complete symmetry between matter and antimatter, which is why the universe should not actually exist.” The CERN antiproton decelerator in Geneva.

Mixing plasmas The ALPHA-2 experiment receives its antiprotons from the CERN Antiproton Decelerator and its positrons are produced by radioactive decay. In a typical experimental run, the team mixes ...

Antiprotons are collected from the Antiproton Decelerator (AD) and bound to positrons (or anti-electrons) to create neutral anithydrogen atoms.

Unlike most experiments at CERN, the £3.2 million Antimatter Decelerator (AD) is designed to slow down particles rather than accelerate them. The antiprotons are created when high-energy protons from ...

This is an image of BASE experiment at the CERN antiproton decelerator in Geneva: Visible in the image are the control equipment, the superconducting magnet that houses the Penning trap, and the ...

The lab's Antiproton Decelerator is a ring, 182 meters around, that feeds from the same accelerators as the lab's bigger and more famous sibling, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
