Anti-Matter form of Hydrogen Isolated

Physicists working at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva, Switzerland, have succeeded in trapping antihydrogen – the antimatter equivalent of the hydrogen atom – a milestone that could soon lead to experiments on a form of matter that disappeared mysteriously shortly after the birth of the universe 14 billion years ago.

While the number and lifetime are insufficient to threaten the Vatican – in the 2000 novel and 2009 movie “Angels & Demons,” a hidden vat of potentially explosive antihydrogen was buried under St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome – it is a starting point for learning new physics, the researchers said.
