Antimatter Matter Asymmetry

Antimatter matter asymmetry refers to the observed fact that our universe contains much more matter than antimatter. When matter and antimatter meet, they annihilate each other, producing energy. The Big Bang should have created equal amounts of both, but somehow, a slight imbalance occurred, resulting in matter’s dominance. This asymmetry is one of the big mysteries in physics, as understanding it could explain why everything we see exists. Scientists study tiny differences in particle behavior to uncover the mechanisms behind this imbalance, which shaped the universe’s fundamental structure.
