In a recent experiment, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN produced particles believed to have only existed in the ...

Theoretical calculations predict a complex excited state (0+) for helium-4 (4He) at the 20.21 MeV energy level. This state involves a coupling of three cluster configurations: hydrogen-3 and a proton, ...

Isaac Newton's historic work on gravity was apparently inspired by watching an apple fall to the ground from a tree. But what about an "anti-apple" made of antimatter, would it fall in the same way if ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — The international collaborators of the ALPHA-2 experiment have measured the charge of antihydrogen to be zero with the greatest precision yet, narrowing the possibilities of ...

A team of fusion researchers demonstrated that ions with energy in mega electron volt range are superiorly confined in a plasma for the first time in helical systems. This promises alpha particle ...

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 ...

This is an example track of an alpha particle (energy 15 MeV) from the test beam registered with the demonstrator detector mini-eTPC. Read-out electrodes of the detector are parallel to the X-Y plane, ...
