Levka<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/antimatter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#antimatter</a> "The world around us is made of matter—the stars, planets, people and things that populate our cosmos are composed of atoms that contain only matter, and no antimatter. But it didn’t have to be this way. Our best theories suggest that when the universe was born it had equal amounts of matter and antimatter, and when the two made contact, they annihilated one another. For some reason, a small excess of matter survived and went on to create the physical world. Why? No one knows.So physicists have been on the hunt for any sign of difference between matter and antimatter, known in the field as a violation of “charge conjugation–parity symmetry,” or CP violation, that could explain why some matter escaped destruction in the early universe.Today physicists at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)’s LHCb experiment published a paper in the journal Nature announcing that they’ve measured CP violation for the first time in baryons—the class of particles that includes the protons and neutrons inside atoms. Baryons are all built from triplets of even smaller particles called quarks. Previous experiments dating back to 1964 had seen CP violation in meson particles, which unlike baryons are made of a quark-antiquark pair. In the new experiment, scientists observed that baryons made of an up quark, a down quark and one of their more exotic cousins called a beauty quark decay more often than baryons made of the antimatter versions of those same three quarks."<a href="https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-large-hadron-collider-discovers-antimatter-behaving-oddly-in-new-class/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-large-hadron-collider-discovers-antimatter-behaving-oddly-in-new-class/</a>
