When was antimatter discovered?

Antimatter was discovered by Paul Dirac in 1928.


Who first synthesized antimatter?

The first synthesis of antimatter was achieved by Carl D. Anderson in 1932 when he discovered the positron, which is the antimatter counterpart to the electron. Anderson's discovery provided experimental evidence for the existence of antimatter.


What is the goal CERN?

By recreating Big Bang conditions, scientists at CERN trie to answer following questions:Why is there no-more antimatter left, although both, matter and antimatter were resulting from the Big Bang in equal parts and thus, should've annihilate themselves?Why do particles have mass? What is mass? Is the origin of mass the Higgs-boson?Does dark matter exist? What is dark matter?Do extra dimensions exist?

Did Robert langdon work for CERN?

No, Robert Langdon did not work for CERN. He is a fictional character created by author Dan Brown who appears in a series of novels, such as "Angels & Demons" and "The Da Vinci Code," where he is portrayed as a Harvard professor of symbology and religious iconology.


When matter and antimatter combine they will form what?

when matter and antimatter combines, it will forms a flash and both will disappear. Disappear means its not like magic. Its is a reaction proved by research. Research is still going on in CERN. Matter is a thing which is everything present in the world in every state. (solid, liquid and gas). But antimatter is not at all existing in milky-way galaxy. But we can generate anitimatter.


How do you make Anti-matter?

Antimatter has been made in the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) at CERN before by smashing two of some sort of energy beams then using electromagnets to collect the antimatter before it annihilates with the matter.


Is anything more expensive than antimatter at 62.5 billion dollars?

well, i think yes. Antimatter is produced when high energy particles collides like when cosmic rays impacts with the earth's atmosphere. Antimatter will immediately annihilate when it comes in contact with matter so it's almost impossible to collect. But antiparticles can be created artificially in the cyclotrons like in the ATHENA project at CERN. another challenging problem is how to store antimatter, the Penning Trap (used for charged particles) and the atomic trap(used for uncharged particles) are specialized device to store antimatter. running the CERN is costing billions of dollars. estimations points to 62.5 trillion dollars to produce 1 gram of antimatter. so far, i think it would be the most expensive substance ever made.


What is origin of antimatter?

The origin of antimatter on earth today is the Hadron-collider at CERN in Switzerland. There they have a large ring (several kilometers in diameter) that they use to study and discover small, new particles to learn more about how our Universe was created and what happened during the Big Bang. At CERN, they send protons in each direction in the ring with very high speed. They then collide, and then some antimatter is produced from the destroyed protons. The amount of antimatter produced, however, is a very small amount, and it will take millions of years before we get even 1 gram of antimatter! However, in the early Universe, very shortly after the Big Bang, there were extremely high amounts of antimatter. At that time, there were equally amounts of matter and antimatter (roughly 50% of each). There was, however, a small imbalance between them. For every 100 million antiparticles there were, there were 101 million particles. As you probably know, matter and antimatter have opposite charges, spin, color charges etc. If they touch each other, they get annihilated in a shower of pure energy. Albert Einstein figured out that there was much energy in matter, relating to his well known formula E= mc2. That's very high amounts of energy! If you had transformed 1 gram of matter into energy, you would have enough energy to power your house for 1 year. We're talking about lots of energy here! The superpowers used Einstein's formula to create fission bombs (atom bombs), and fusion bombs (hydrogen bombs). These converted only a small amount of matter into energy. If there had existed an antimatter bomb, all of the antimatter would have reacted to matter, thus converting all of the antimatter and the matter that reacted with it to energy. While an atom bomb only has an efficiency of 0,01%, a hydrogen bomb would have an efficiency of 1%. An antimatter bomb would have an efficiency of 100%!
