ANNIHILATION. “A collision between any particle and its anti-particle partner leads to their mutual annihilation, giving rise to various proportions of intense photons (gamma rays), neutrinos, and sometimes less-massive particle–antiparticle pairs. The majority of the total energy of annihilation emerges in the form of ionizing radiation.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn

SIMILAR BUT DISTINCT. “Theoretically, a particle and its anti-particle (for example, a proton and an antiproton) have the same mass, but opposite electric charge, and other differences in quantum numbers. For example, a proton has positive charge while an antiproton has negative charge.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn

SOURCES OF ANTIMATTER. “Minuscule numbers of antiparticles are generated daily at particle accelerators—total production has been only a few nanograms—and in natural processes like cosmic ray collisions and some types of radioactive decay, but only a tiny fraction of these have successfully been bound together in experiments to form anti-atoms.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn

ONE PPB. “In October 2017, scientists working on the BASE experiment at CERN reported a measurement of the antiproton magnetic moment to a precision of 1.5 parts per billion. This measurement represents the first time that a property of antimatter is known more precisely than the equivalent property in matter.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn

DIRECTION OF EVOLUTION. “Seen in retrospect, evolution as a whole doubtless had a general direction, from simple to complex, from dependence on to relative independence of the environment, to greater and greater autonomy of individuals, greater and greater development of sense organs and nervous systems conveying and processing information about the state of the organism's surroundings, and finally greater and greater consciousness. You can call this direction progress or by some other name.” (Theodosius Dobzhansky). https://lnkd.in/gpfbgQFx View in LinkedIn
