ALPHA-2 Experiment

The ALPHA-2 experiment is a scientific project conducted at CERN that studies antimatter, specifically antihydrogen, which is the opposite of regular hydrogen. Researchers trap antihydrogen atoms and compare their properties to hydrogen to understand fundamental physics better. By examining how they behave, scientists aim to uncover why our universe is mostly made of matter and not antimatter, despite both having been created during the Big Bang. This experiment helps address key questions about the universe's composition and the laws governing it.
