ecoli Posted May 21, 2010 Posted May 21, 2010 http://www.suntimes.com/lifestyles/health/2299276,CST-NWS-muons21.article Using Fermilab's Tevatron particle accelerator, an international team of physicists found that high-energy collisions between protons and anti-protons produced more pairs of subatomic particles called muons than anti-muons.The 1 percent difference between the number of muons and anti-muons could help explain why matter is more dominant in the universe than antimatter, said Stefan Soldner-Rembold, a particle physicist and spokesman for the research team.
Mr Skeptic Posted May 21, 2010 Posted May 21, 2010 Personally, I'd be more interested in the reverse process: turning a muon (or even better, electrons and protons) into energy without using antimatter.
