  9. What happened to antimatter? - CERN

    May 13, 2013 · What happened to antimatter? Where is the missing antimatter? CERN scientist Rolf Landua teams up with TED-Ed animators to explain the disparity that allows us to exist

  10. The Antiproton Decelerator - CERN

    The Antiproton Decelerator (AD) is a unique machine that produces low-energy antiprotons for studies of antimatter, and “creates” antiatoms. A proton beam coming from the PS (Proton Synchrotron) is fired …
