Antimatter stays to be an enigma, but specialists at CERN might quickly be able to determine several of its key properties be grateful to groundbreaking strategies they have developed that catch and store antimatter for over 15 minutes.  Stating their work in Nature Physics, the international group of scientists working at CERN (ALPHA team) outlined their plans to purify the antihydrogen catch with “the hope that by 2012 we will have a new trap with laser access to allow spectroscopic experiments on the antiatoms.”

Anti-hydrogen atoms were first completed in big amounts at CERN eight years ago, . . . → Read More: Specialists Study Antimatter Properties Kept in Bottle for 16 Minutes
