It was a good ride fellow Earthlings . . .But CERN scientists have now been able to isolate unstable antimatter for a grand total of nearly 17 minutes.
That's a far cry from experiments performed last fall, when scientists were only able to record the presence of antimatter for fractions of seconds. The increased longevity should now give researchers the time they need to perform studies on antiatoms related to change-parity-time reversal (CPT) symmetry.
So just how difficult is it to trap antimatter for study? Just like in Star Trek, the combination of matter and antimatter particles leads to the annihilation of both and the production of a small flash of energy. Thus, to successfully trap antimatter, researchers use magnetic fields to contain antiatoms. When they turn off the field, the resulting annihilation eventsrecorded by a special detectorclue the scientists into just how many antiatoms are left after a set period of containment time.

ib4 we bring our anti-selves into our dimension and annihilate ourselves.

If matter cannot be created or destroyed. Why is it that matter + anti matter = self annihilation?
