Physicists trap single antimatter particle for a month
Original: antimatter
Physicists have trapped a single antimatter particle for a month, a feat reported by Scientific American. Holding antimatter for that long is a major technical achievement, since antimatter annihilates on contact with ordinary matter. The result is drawing attention in the US and Canada as people discuss what it could mean for studying antimatter's properties and testing fundamental physics.
Why now: A landmark physics experiment on antimatter confinement has just been reported, sparking broad scientific interest.
