42 Facts about Antiparticles


Facts about antiparticles
1.     An antiparticle is same particle with reversed charge.
2.     All particles have antiparticles.
3.     All matters have their corresponding antimatter.
4.     When particle and their respective anti particle meet they annihilates.
5.     In annihilation is the  mutual conversion of particle and antiparticle into electromagnetic radiations
6.     When matter and anti matter meet they annihilate.
7.     Antiparticles of electron is positron.
8.     When electron and positron meet will annihilate.

12.                        Photons ,gluons and gravitons are same as their antiparticles.
13.                        Antiparticles of neutrons are called antineutrons.
14.                        Antineutron contain more quarks than neutron.
15.                        Antiproton contain more antiquarks than quarks.
16.                        Antiprotons have two up antiquarks and one down quarks.
17.                        Antineutrons has one up antiquark and two down quarks.
18.                        Antiparticle of leptons are called antileptons.
19.                        Positron is the antiparticle of electrons.
20.                        Enormous  radiations released in nuclear bomb is due to annihilation of particles and antiparticles
21.                        Particles and antiparticles have same mass.
22.                        The antiparticle of tau is antitau.
23.                        Particles and antiparticle hve same mass but opposite charge.
24.                        Quarks and antiquarks are reversed in hadrons and meson for particles and antiparticles.
25.                        Antimatter have opposite constituent particles of their original matter.
26.                        Energy released in particle annihilation can be given by einstein mass-energy relations
27.                        Antiparticles combine to form antimatter.
28.                        +pion is made up of up quark and down antiquark.
29.                        –pion is made up of up antiquark and down quark.
30.                        +pion is an anti particle of negative pion.
31.                        Why the universe is made up of matters instead of antimatters?
32.                        The universe is made up of matter due to parity violations.
33.                        Antiparticles are produces in particle accelerators.
34.                        Antiquarks are the antiparticles of quarks.

38.                         Antiparticles from cosmic rays are churned up by the atmosphere they pass through before reaching the earth.
39.                         Bananas release antimatter called positron because it contain the radioactive potassium -40.
40.                         A gram of antimatter when annihilated can produce an explosion size of nuclear bomb.
41.                         Humans too have produced antimatter artificially, though in nanograms.
42.                        To produce 1gram of  antimatter it will require several billion kilowatt of energy and billions of dollars.
