Antimatter is matter made up of the antiparticles of the corresponding particles found in “ordinary” matter. Physicists invoke the cosmological collider to demonstrate why matter, not antimatter, dominates the…

An artistic illustration of the movement of an antihydrogen atom in the ALPHA magnetic trap, before (grey) and after (blue) laser cooling. The images show…
Stars, galaxies, and everything in the universe, including our own bodies, are comprised of so-called regular matter. Regular matter includes atoms and molecules, which are…
Lack of symmetry in qubits can’t fix errors in quantum computing, but might explain matter/antimatter imbalance. Unexpected twist in the Kibble-Zurek theory offers a new…
Researchers at the University of Tokyo and National Institute of Radiological Sciences have designed a way to detect the absolute oxygen concentration in patients’ bodies,…
At the European nuclear and particle physics laboratory CERN, physicists can produce extremely rare short-lived atoms and molecules. Researchers from KU Leuven have shown that…
