Antimatter is a type of matter composed of antiparticles, which have the same mass as particles of ordinary matter but opposite charges. When antimatter comes into contact with matter, they annihilate each other, releasing energy according to Einstein's equation E=mc².
The European Organization for Nuclear Research, known as CERN, is one of the world's largest and most respected centers for scientific research in particle physics. It is famous for its Large Hadron Collider (LHC), which has made significant contributions to our understanding of fundamental particles and forces.
