LHC breaks the record for heaviest antimatter nucleus ever seen.

Researchers have found evidence of an exotic form of antimatter in the aftermath of colliding extremely fast lead ions.

Benjamin Dönigus at Goethe University Frankfurt and colleagues from the Large Hadron Collider at the Geneva CERN particle physics laboratory have created an unprecedentedly heavy antimatter nucleus: antihyperhelium-4.

Discovery of the first evidence of the hypernuclei that is an #antimatter counterpart of hyperhelium-4 was made at the LHC detector ALICE…

While most of the nine experiments at the #LHC, each with its own detector, generate their results by slamming together protons at near the speed of light, the #ALICE collaboration creates quark-gluon plasma by slamming together much heavier particles, usually lead nuclei, or "ions."

#Dirac was a strange man who today would probably be diagnosed as being on the #autism spectrum. Tall, gangly and reminiscent of a stick insect, his habit was to work hard all week and on Sundays take long walks in the countryside around Cambridge, where he would climb tall trees dressed in his suit and tie.

In particle physics, the Dirac equation is a relativistic wave equation derived by British physicist Paul Dirac in 1928. In its free form, or including electromagnetic interactions, it describes all spin-1⁄2 massive particles, called "Dirac particles", such as electrons and quarks for which parity is a symmetry. It is consistent with both the principles of quantum mechanics and the theory of special relativity,[1] and was the first theory to account fully for special relativity in the context of quantum mechanics

Frozen #positronium: Some even talk of it as a means of propelling spacecraft close to the speed of light, making interstellar travel feasible in the far future...

The work was carried out at #Cern's #antimatter factory, which has recently created and stored the largest amount of antimatter hydrogen atoms in the known universe.
