SMALL STEP. “The nuclei of antihelium have been artificially produced, albeit with difficulty, and are the most complex anti-nuclei so far observed.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn

ATOMIC ASSEMBLY. “Antimatter particles bind with each other to form antimatter, just as ordinary particles bind to form normal matter. For example, a positron (the antiparticle of the electron) and an antiproton (the antiparticle of the proton) can form an antihydrogen atom.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn

ANNIHILATION. “If surrounding matter is present, the energy content of this radiation will be absorbed and converted into other forms of energy, such as heat or light. The amount of energy released is usually proportional to the total mass of the collided matter and antimatter, in accordance with the notable mass–energy equivalence equation, E=mc2.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn

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

COSMIC ANTIMATTER. “Most matter observable from the Earth seems to be made of matter rather than antimatter. If antimatter-dominated regions of space existed, the gamma rays produced in annihilation reactions along the boundary between matter and antimatter regions would be detectable.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn

ANTIMATTER STARS. “It also implies that, for example, a star made up of antimatter (an "antistar") will shine just like an ordinary star.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn

NOT DIFFERENT. “This means a particle and its corresponding antiparticle must have identical masses and decay lifetimes (if unstable).” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn

IDENTICAL BUT OPPOSITE. “There are compelling theoretical reasons to believe that, aside from the fact that antiparticles have different signs on all charges (such as electric and baryon charges), matter and antimatter have exactly the same properties.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter View in LinkedIn
