Didn't matter and antimatter completely annihilate at the time of the Big Bang? Perhaps this antimatter still exists somewhere else? Otherwise where did it go and what happened to it in the first place? So if matter and antimatter annihilate, and we and everything else are made of matter, why do we still exist? This mystery arises because we find ourselves living in a Universe made exclusively of matter. The scenario should have been the same during the birth of the Universe, when equal amounts of matter and antimatter would have been produced in the Big Bang. But no one has ever produced antimatter without also obtaining the corresponding matter particles. Then in 1932 the evidence was found to prove these ideas correct, when the positron was discovered occurring naturally in cosmic rays.įor the past 50 years and more, laboratories like CERN have routinely produced antiparticles, and in 1995 CERN became the first laboratory to create anti-atoms artificially. The basic equation he derived turned out to have two solutions, one for the electron and one that seemed to describe something with positive charge (in fact, it was the positron). He developed a theory that combined quantum mechanics and Einstein’s special relativity to provide a more complete description of electron interactions. There's a factory in Europe that makes antimatter It's the rarest, most expensive, and potentially the most dangerous material on earth. The ‘case file’ of antimatter was opened in 1928 by physicist Paul Dirac. When a particle and its antiparticle come together, they both disappear, quite literally in a flash, as the annihilation process transforms their mass into energy. I have tried for a long time to find a book written on only antimatters and this is just the book i wanted.too good.language very easy and lehmanish,that makes. The negatively charged electron, for example, has a positively charged antiparticle called the positron.
For each basic particle of matter, there exists an antiparticle with the same mass, but the opposite electric charge.

The issue though is the fuel tank would be extremely unstable.The antimatter is missing – not from CERN, but from the Universe! At least that is what we can deduce so far from careful examination of the evidence. It’d be super efficient to since you get a lot of bang per mass. If you could find a way to trap thenpositrons from bananas cheaply and you had trillions of bananas you could make a bomb.Īlso, you can use antimatter for energy production. If a few stray electrons manage to get through your vacuum and tremendous amount of energy will release and likely cause your bomb to detonate prematurely.įun note, a source of positrons is bananas because they produce Potasium 40. If you had 1g of positrons (anti electrons) and you contained them in a perfect vacuum inside a magnetic field all you’d do to detonate is open the vacuum or turn off the magnetic field. You also don’t have to worry about the bomb blowing itself apart and wasting fuel since the antimatter will bind with regular matter under pretty much all conditions.Īntimatter bombs make the best nuke bombs by far, but they are extremely unstable. In an antimatter bomb 200% of the mass is converted to energy because your 1g of anti matter combines with 1g of regular matter and all of it is converted to energy. Of that 3% fuel only maybe 5% of the mass is converted to energy since the fission products have mass as well. When a fission nuke is detonated only around 3% of the fuel is fissioned because it blows it self apart before it can all react.
