Canadian-led team of scientists, including two York University students, has offered the world its first glimpse of antihydrogen’s properties, in the first experiment ever performed on the anti-atom. Researchers at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), in an international collaboration led by Canadians, used microwave spectroscopy – one of the most sensitive techniques for […]
A York University professor is among an international group of scientists to successfully trap antimatter atoms for more than 16 minutes – 5,000 times longer than previous efforts – according to a study published yesterday in the journal Nature Physics. “We’re a long way off from being able to actually bottle antimatter, like in the movie […]
York University researchers have played a key role in a new finding that may help explain the imbalance of matter and antimatter in our universe. The DZero collaboration of scientists at the United States Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) submitted a finding to the journal Physical Review D, reporting significant differences between matter […]
