Soooo,are you saying antimatter
does or doesn't matter.rolling on the floor laughing
In the universe we know now the only thing that matters to me is why

Is Elon Musk's car floating around out in it

and will it ever crash back into Earth.confused
Hi Ash.

Good question !

What do u think about bitcoin, as his name is liked to that as well ?
sigh

Another downer negative blog.
Everyone is anti-something.
Anti-this snooty
Anti-that devil
Now it's anti matter.
moping

Couldn't we all be more positive, and everyone just get along?

Mic. I missed ur humor !
Well, Tara (the speaker) has more recently determined everything is so 'dark', that there is much more 'dark' than was suspected, so of course it is all downer. rolling on the floor laughing


She did, by the way, enjoy the portrayal of her CERN group's work in Angels and Demons, and only wishes her bottles could someday hold that many anti matter atoms.
wave Snooks! It's been awhile!

Mic. I'm mainly on the forums now.
Did not like the nastiness on the blogs.
But say hello to friends now and again.
Ken,bottles of darkness.what next!rolling on the floor laughing
Antimatter cannot be bottled.
Actually Snook, if you bother to watch the first video you will see you are wrong. She bottles anti-matter Hydrogen for a living (yet, another occupation my old high school guidance counselors never even hinted at). Only a few atoms at a time, and thus far for about 15 minutes as the maximum, but bottled it is.

She would bottle more, but the stuff currently is so hard to make and then you have to detect it, then catch it and put it in the bottle before it is gone as a flash. Currently, amongst many other experiments she is attempting to measure how anti matter Hydrogen reacts to gravity. The existence of anti matter Hydrogen of course implies eventually we will be able to make anti matter Deuterium and Tritium. Beyond where she is today, but still one must wonder what properties fusion with anti matter Tritium would possess. Likewise getting anti matter Hydrogen to hang around long enough to make anti matter Helium and other elements is probably the work of the next generation. We see the Standard Model of the Universe may be correct and it began with equal amounts of both kinds of matter. But we have no idea, yet, why after the process of mutual annihilation began the result was much more matter than there was anti matter left. Currently using the detectors shown in the video we are finding that in our whole Universe there is only about one galaxy's worth of mass (less every day of course) of anti-matter. Something about the properties of anti-matter allowed the CP variation (explained in her video) to occur so that the Universe did not simply immediately destroy itself with constant collision annihilation, but instead the anti-matter became rarer and rarer.

Ash - In another wonderful video she discusses the dark. We know the dark is growing, but since it is really hard to see, and even hard to know when you do have a bottle of it (since it is part of the all), it may be a few years before jars of 'dark' are available for purchase. professor
You mentioned Cern and a correlation?
Snooks my philosophy is Bitcoin is a test run and a form of money manipulation like hedge funds.
Ken, why do u want bottled 'dark' ?

Ash. It's very fishy.
Verrry Fishie!hug cool
