Scientists make rare achievement in study of antimatter

Through hard work, ingenuity and a little cooperation from nature, scientists on the BASE experiment vastly improved their measurement of a property of protons and antiprotons. Scientists at CERN are celebrating a recent, rare achievement in precision physics: Collaborators on the BASE experiment measured a property of antimatter 350 times as precisely as it had ever been measured before. The BASE experiment looks for undiscovered differences between protons and their antimatter counterparts, an...
