#Doyouknow why the matter is dominant over antimatter in the universe? 😲 This situation makes a detailed study of antimatter of immense significance not just for physics but also for cosmology. 🌌 25 years ago, CERN announced producing the first atoms of antimatter. This handful of antihydrogen atoms were created on the Low Energy Antiproton Ring (LEAR), a machine used to accumulate and store antiprotons.

What is the link between antimatter research and spectroscopy? In this CERN-Solvay Education video, we build a very budget-friendly version of an instrument used to study light: a spectroscope. You can use it to break down the lights around you into their constituent colours and find out at which energy levels light is emitted. Physicists at CERN are trying to find out whether there are any differences between matter and antimatter that cannot be explained by the Standard Model. The ALPHA experi
