Beograd Čukarica

Korpa solidarnosti

Goal: First and foremost, the

goal of our action was to

provide two Roma families with

food, elementary groceries, and

with toiletries. Secondly, the

point of the action was not only

to help those in need, but to

illustrate that one small group

of people can make a change

with a simplistic idea that is

financially undemanding. With

this action, we encourage people

to do the same and make a

change in their vicinity.

In order to showcase our most humane intentions to provide help to

the ones in need, Rotaract Club Beograd Čukarica got together and did a

food-raising action for two Roma families. The two families caught our

eye with humbleness and asking for food instead of money. We success-

fully collected two shopping carts, which were later transported to their

homes. These are our first two cents to them, and hopefully, not the

last.

Date: 31st of March 2013. Place: In front of a supermarket chain

store called "Maxi"

Antimatter’s Magnetic Charge Revealed

Scientists say they've made the most precise measurements to date of the magnetic charge of sin-gle particles of matter and its spooky counterpart antimatter. A better understanding of the characteristics of these particles could help scientists solve one of the most baffling mysteries in physics: Why is the universe made of matter and not antimatter? "According to our theories, the same amount of matter and antimatter was produced during the

Big Bang," Harvard physicist Gerald Gabrielse explained in a statement. "When matter and anti-matter meet, they are annihilated. As the universe cools down, the big mystery is: Why didn't all the matter find the antimatter and annihilate all of both? There's a lot of matter and no antimatter left, and we don't know why."

Gabrielse and his team captured individual protons and antiprotons in a trap created bz electro-

magnetic fields that keep these particles suspended in one spot for several minutes, ensuring the

two don't annihilate each other before measurements are made. For some of their experiments,

the team turned to the extensive tunnels of the Geneva-based CERN laboratory By looking at the

oscillations of the protons and antiprotons created, the scientists measured the size of the magnet-

ic charge of both types of particles more accurately than ever before, boosting the precision of the

antiproton measurement by a factor of 680.
