'Confiscate' substance used to produce weapons of mass destruction

Scientists from the European Atomic Energy Research Organization (CERN, Switzerland) have found a way to keep antimatter - a substance used to make weapons of mass destruction, by Dan Brown mentions in "Da Vinci Code".

>> First successful creation of 'antimatter'

In 2010, antimatter was coined by researchers at CERN, but the atoms stayed just for a very short time. Now, antimatter - the enemy of matter - has been held by hydrogen for 16 minutes - 5,000 times longer than before.

Antimatter bottles are called 'magnetic cylinders' - a type of superconducting magnet. Magnetic bottles hold antiatom particles of hydrogen atoms.

"Antiparticle" is difficult, because as soon as the antimatter material, they will destroy each other and create a big explosion. Over the years, scientists have been trying to find antimatter protection, but only in the antimatter has been destroyed.

" We have successfully preserved antihydrogen atoms in antimatter for at least 1000 seconds (more than 16 minutes), " said Makato Fujiwara, a Japanese scientist and professor . Is not it and the weight in the same environment? These are the questions that motivate us to continue to study . '

Antimatter is a great mystery to the universe that scientists are continuing to study.

Antimatter was once known in the film " Angel and the Devil," based on Dan Brown's novel of the same name, when an antimatter explosion threatened to flatten the Vatican.

In the novel " Da Vinci Code, " character Robert Langdon tried to retrieve stolen antimatter from a CERN facility.

In the film, researchers at CERN first found a way to create and trap antimatter particles. This is the inspiration for author Dan Brown to write the novel " Angel and Evil " after the " Da Vinci Code ".
