Тезаурус:

1. We can imagine, then, a circumstance in which there were no such things as matter, antimatter or energy - only a sea of virtual particles.
2. One was a search for proof of the existence of antimatter, the other an attempt to identify different kinds of high energy particles "to help us understand the changes in our own Galaxy".
3. (It is possible that there may be areas of the Universe where antimatter galaxies, stars, planets and even life exist, but we have no evidence of this.)
4. It is thought possible that, when the Universe came into existence, there was by chance a little more matter than antimatter; most of the matter destroyed itself by interaction with the antimatter, but that still left some over - the matter which makes up the Universe around us.
5. In the same way that matter is constituted of fundamental particles, antiparticles are the building blocks of antimatter.
6. However, matter and antimatter annihilate each other completely when they come into contact: an "antimatter bomb" would create an explosion giving off such stupendous amounts of energy that the H-bomb would pale by comparison.
7. At energies roughly equal to 270 proton masses each, the two beams of matter and antimatter collide, creating a host of subatomic particles from their combined pool of energy.
8. A question arises: if antimatter particles have other properties directly opposed to those of matter particles, surely there must be such a thing as antigravity?
9. But the device can also accelerate antiprotons, the antimatter equivalents of protons with the same mass but negative electric charge.
10. OPPOSITE PAGE Antimatter particles were predicted before there was any hard evidence that they existed.
11. Earlier we talked about antimatter - particles which have all their physical characteristics opposite to those displayed by particles of matter.
