Matter V Antimatter

We owe our existence to the triumph of matter over antimatter. For every billion particles of antimatter there were a billion and one particles of matter and it was the one extra particle in each volume that was enough to build the universe.

I discovered a continuum! Eat a bunch of beans, let the pressure build, and release with a silent constant and that's it! A continuum!

@Blankskeen they turn into energy/radiation

Someone high fiving their antimatter clone would definitely go down as the greatest high five in history.

Oh Michio, you know everything. Why haven't you started your own pseudo-scientific cult like religion. I would be a believer.

@ThePhantom710 I meant to add that matter AND its associated charges apply at the subatomic level as well.

[joemasserini]

@ThePhantom710 true but incomplete; you're only talking about atoms. The definition for "matter" applies to the subatomic as well. The electron is neither a part of an atom's nucleus nor is it positively charged but is still considered to be matter. I would also suggest (and I'm not the only one) that the neutron is considered to be matter.

anti-matter is actualy reversed matter :O "chock face"

antimatter is more powerful can destroy a one planet

@Daymjo

1)which is why it's compared energy output is that of the largest nuke ever set off.

2)If the tsar bomb isn't effective at producing energy I would like you to go stand next to it while it's set off. There's enough energy there to convert your mass into base molecules or energy whatever have you. Now in the sense of using the energy and controlling it than no something like that cannot be contained.

3)There was no disagreement there

[Daymjo]

This got me thinking.. If you can create energy out of matter, what would you create if you applied the same process to anti-matter? Would it be energy or some weird form of anti-energy?

And if the answer is energy, wouldn't that be a potential explanation for why there's more matter than anti-matter in the universe, allowing it to exist? Because more anti-matter than matter exists in the form of energy?

1. 1kg is ALOT of anti matter.

2. The Tsar Bomb, while powerful for a nuke, wasn't actually that effective in terms of producing energy.

3. In order to create matter and anti-matter pairs you need amounts of energy that exceed the energy which is released by their reunification, otherwise it would be a perpetuum mobile. It's basic logic.
