CERN Scientists Directly Interact with Antimatter for the First Time
Today,
after 20 years or research, CERN's ALPHA collaboration has announced
the very first measurement of a spectral line in an antihydrogen atom
using a laser. In other words, they have been able to directly measure
the behavior of antimatter by shining a light on it.
In the new
study, published in Nature, scientists found that antihydrogen reacted
the same way to light as hydrogen, meaning that matter and antimatter
have the same reaction to light. If they had found otherwise, it would
have completely changed our understanding of physics.
Antimatter
has been extremely elusive to scientists, especially since it can't
coexist with matter. When matter and antimatter particles meet, they
destroy each other, which is one reason the scientific community is
baffled by the fact that there is much more matter than antimatter in
the universe. It has been impossible up to this point to directly
observe antimatter, which makes this a truly momentous discovery.
Opening quote
"It's
a watershed moment, we had to make a lot of technological developments
to get to this point. First we had to make antihydrogen atoms, one at a
time. Then we had to hold on to them for long enough. Finally we shone a
laser on it," Mike Charlton, one of the scientists on the project, told
The Independent.
Closing quote
Up next for ALPHA is to
refine the precision of their results for future studies. Such
high-precision antimatter testing may also be able to explain some of
the matter-antimatter asymmetry we experience in our universe.
