A new optical fiber connection linking CERN and the French National Metrological Institute in Paris is now operational to provide a stable frequency reference for antimatter experiments. This ...

Researchers at Cern in Switzerland have some interesting things to play with, and have now proved the merits of a way to test antimatter as a source of the thing we all want to see in our futures: ...

Researchers at Cern in Switzerland have tested a novel way to find out if antimatter is the source of a force termed "antigravity". Antimatter particles are the "mirror image" of normal matter, but ...

Going down: ALPHA-g’s barrel scintillator being assembled at CERN. (Courtesy: CERN) Antimatter does not “fall up”, but rather responds to the gravitational pull of the Earth in much the same way as ...

CERN experiment enables scientists to 'trap and hold' antihydrogen atoms 'for several hours' Researchers at the CERN lab, the European organisation for nuclear research, claim to have taken antimatter ...

Physicists at Cern have trapped a quantity of antimatter atoms for 1,000 seconds, a breakthrough that should allow them to better study the vulnerable particles. "We can now start to measure the ...

The Alpha experiment's antimatter chamber uses magnetic fields to sequester antihydrogen atoms Researchers at Cern in Switzerland have tested a novel way to find out if antimatter is the source of a ...
