at Fermi lab they create anti-matter or I guess they don’t create it but they synthesize it , where do they keep it so it doesn't react with regular matter and produce light.
Anti-matter is a type of matter that is made up of particles with the same mass as regular matter, but with opposite charge. For example, an anti-electron (also known as positron) has the same mass as an electron, but with a positive charge instead of a negative one.
Anti-matter can be created through high-energy collisions between particles, such as protons and antiprotons, or through radioactive decay processes. At Fermi Lab, scientists use powerful particle accelerators to create and study anti-matter.
Studying anti-matter can provide valuable insights into the fundamental laws of physics and help us understand the origins of the universe. It can also have practical applications, such as in medical imaging and cancer treatment.
At Fermi Lab, scientists use advanced particle detectors and accelerators to create and study anti-matter. They also use computers and mathematical models to analyze the data and understand the behavior of anti-matter particles.
One of the biggest challenges in studying anti-matter is its short lifespan. When anti-matter comes into contact with regular matter, they annihilate each other, releasing a large amount of energy. This makes it difficult to capture and study anti-matter particles for a long period of time.
