The mystery of antimatter is about to be decoded

Reuters on December 6 said that European scientists have just announced the creation and capture of antihydrogen atoms in an ideal magnet tube.

This will help fast progress in explaining antimatter formation - one of the great mysteries of the universe.

Antimatter is a problem that is of particular interest to global scientists because it is considered an endless source of energy and is free.

The publication of the European Atomic Research Organization (CERN) was launched three weeks after three other independent research groups in Geneva (Switzerland) said that for the first time they could create and capture atoms. This is hard to follow. Antimatter or neutral matter is thought to have the same amount of matter present in the universe.

Rolf Heuer, CEO of CERN, said that new discoveries are being achieved at a rapid pace, so the operation of the large particle accelerator (LHC) will last for another year, by the end of 2012. The LHC has moved to a completely new stage, so scientists believe that in the coming months it could help people understand the 'dark matter' - 25% of the universe.

Antimatter is composed of fundamental antiparticles such as antiparticles, neutron antiparticles . In theory, if antimatter meets matter, it will explode.
