Demonstration of first antimatter quantum bit paves the way for substantially improved tests of nature’s fundamental symmetries In a breakthrough for antimatter research, the BASE collaboration at CERN has kept an antiproton – the antimatter counterpart of a proton – oscillating smoothly between two different quantum states for almost a minute while trapped. The achievement, reported in a paper published today in the journal Nature, marks the …

Why didn’t the universe annihilate itself moments after the big bang? A new finding at Cern on the French-Swiss border brings us closer to answering this fundamental question about why matter dominates over its opposite – antimatter. Much of what we see in everyday life is made up of matter. But antimatter exists in much smaller quantities. Matter and antimatter …
