How to pronounce“antipart”in English

- They were antiparticles, right?

It's its own antiparticle.

or is its own antiparticle.

discovers the antiparticle of the electron and also discovers the muon.

particles and their antiparticles being created and destroyed all the time. And that picture fits the data which have been exquisitly measured uh in

They simply indicated the presence of an antiparticle.

Or a particle which is its own antiparticle, or a particle which would not have antiparticle.

Carl Anderson goes and discovers the antiparticle of the electron and also discovers the muon.

And the energy always creates particle/antiparticle pairs.

- This didn't just explain why there are antiparticles, but it also answered a more fundamental question, which is, why is every electron in the universe exactly the same?

The first is that most particles must have an antiparticle twin, because they're just mirror excitations in the same field.

And the second and more important implication is that each antiparticle must be exactly equal to a normal particle, just with the opposite charge.

We now know that there's a corresponding antiparticle for every subatomic particle, with the same mass, but opposite charge.

So I'm glossing over the difference between particles and antiparticles here.

And this energy takes the form of pairs of particles and antiparticles that emerged from empty space and then meet and annihilate and in the blink of an eye,

And by now, just about every antiparticle had annihilated with its particle counterpart and turned into photons.

that there must originally have been around 10 to the 89 particles and antiparticles.

- So, I guess there is one particle-antiparticle pair that never annihilated.

It is only a particle, but no antiparticle.

So Hawking realized that if these pairs of particles-- virtual particles and antiparticles-- are bubbling up out of empty space in the vicinity

The idea was that if you reflected everything in a mirror and swapped all the particles for their antiparticles, then the symmetry would be restored and all would be good again.

there is in the universe, there's also an antiparticle.

Whenever we have positive particle, we have the opposite antiparticle.

Whenever you have a positive particle, you have the antiparticle associated with it.

So that where one particle is just outside the horizon, its antiparticle partner can be just inside the black hole.

that predicts what it will do and fits it in with relativity." Dirac's equation also predicts an antiparticle of the electron.

So if I take a particle of matter like an electron, and an antiparticle of matter, a positron,

There are some exceptions though, like the photon and Higgs boson, which are their own antiparticle.

of annihilation happened. So two photons could come together and spontaneously convert their energy into the mass and kinetic energy of a particle-antiparticle pair.

have been created. But if an equal amount of matter and antimatter were created, then every particle should have found its antiparticle twin, and annihilated.

The way they do this is kind of crazy, because they shoot the positrons, remember, those are antiparticles, at a mesh of ultra-fine 20-micrometer diameter tungsten wires, which,

the Feynman diagrams. In his sketches of particle interactions, he showed antiparticles traveling the opposite way to particles backwards in time.

- According to his friend, Heisenberg, that was the biggest leap in 20th-century physics to say there's a whole slew of antiparticles

A famous medical imaging technique called PET scan, Positron Emission Tomography, was actually based on this antiparticle, the positron.

Basically, the novel depicts the epic struggle between angels and demons, culminating in the inhalation of particles and antiparticles.

But also very much on the top of the list is this very interesting concept of Majorana fermion, which is a particle which does not have antiparticle,

So we know some great predictions in theoretical physics, such as gravitational wave, Dirac antiparticle, and so on.

In more recent times, Paul Dirac predicted, through a strange and beautiful equation, the existence of antiparticles, which had not yet been observed

disappear. And this is happening all the time all around us, these particles and antiparticles emerging, meeting, annihilating, and disappearing.

that means you don't know when you're looking at a little tiny piece of space whether it might have in it a particle and its antiparticle that kind of get
