The History of Antimatter (by Rosy Mondardini)

• The history of antimatter begins in 1928 with a young physicist Paul Dirac and a strange mathematical equation...

• The equation predicted the existence of an antiworld identical to ours but made out of antimatter.

• From 1930, the search for the possible constituents of antimatter, antiparticles, began …

New Universe Made out of Antimatter

• In 1928, Paul Dirac’s equation (quantum theory and special relativity), for electron could have two solutions, one for an electron with positive energy, and one for an electron with negative energy.

• The energy of a particle must always be a positive number! - Dirac interpreted the result that every particle has a corresponding antiparticle, exactly matching the particle but with opposite charge.

• In his Nobel Lecture (1933), Dirac speculated on the existence of a completely new Universe made out of antimatter!

Page 7: Study of the Antimatter at Large Hadron Collider

Summer School KPI 15 August 2009 7

From 1930, the hunt for the mysterious antiparticles began...

• In 1932 Carl Anderson, a young professor at the California Institute of Technology studied cosmic particles and found a track left by "something positively charged, and with the same mass as an electron".

• He decided the tracks were antielectrons. He called the antielectron a "positron", for its positive charge (Nobel Prize, 1936) and proved the existence of antiparticles as predicted by Dirac.

• The anti-proton was discovered 22 years later...

Matter and anti-matter particles are produced in the interaction of particles with matter

π+ and π−

particles having the same mass, spin… but Opposite electric charge

The Universe and the Particlesafter Big Bang …

• Small difference between matter and antimatter was first observed in 1964 in an experiment with K-mesons for which Cronin and Fitch were awarded the 1980 Nobel Prize

• Its connection to the existence of matter in the universe was realized in 1967 by academician Andrei Sakharov. Physicists call this difference CP violation.

The elementary particles of the Standard Model

All tests of the SM have been successful up to now ! Yet:• Why 3 families ?• Why several interactions with very different intensities ?• Origin of the particles mass (ad-hoc Higgs boson) ?• Mass hierarchy ?• The neutrinos masses , mν ≠ 0 ?

Properties of building blocks, forces and underlying dynamics

can be described by rotation and/or translation symmetries

in four-dimensional real space (t, x, y, z)

orsome “internal” space

Fundamental interactions.

Page 17: Study of the Antimatter at Large Hadron Collider

Summer School KPI 15 August 2009 17

СРТСРТ theorem theorem::Antiparticles and their interactions are indistinguishable from particles moving along the same world-lines but in opposite directions in 3+1 dimensional space-time.

The SM strictly conserves CPT. There are no however any theoretical reason why C, P and T should conserveseparately.

In particular, the mass of any particle is strictly equal to the mass of its antiparticle (experimentally checked in 1 part to 1018 in K-meson studies).

Fundamental interactions and some Rules

Baryogenesis Big Bang (~ 14 billion years ago) → matter and antimatter equally

produced; followed by annihilation → nbaryon/ng ~ 10-10

Why didn’t all the matter annihilate ? No evidence found for an “antimatter world” elsewhere in the

Universe One of the requirements to produce an asymmetric final state from a

symmetric matter/antimatter initial state :CP symmetry must be violated [Sakharov, 1967]

CP is violated in the Standard Model, through the weak mixing of quarksFor CP violation to occur there must be at least 3 generations of quarksSo problem of baryogenesis may be connected to why three generations exist, even though all normal matter is made up from the first (u, d, e, νe)

However, the CP violation in the SM is not sufficient for baryogenesisOther sources of CP violation expected → good field to search for new physics

CP Violation

We know examples which showmatter world ≠ anti-matter world.

CP symmetry is violated !!

What is BEAUTY ?

BEAUTY – Oscar Wilde, “The picture of Dorian Gray” -

“… Wonder of wonders … a form of Genius – is higher, indeed, than Genius, as it needs no explanation.”

B (Beauty)- mesons are composedout of b-quark and one of theother quarks: b-, u-, d-, c-, s :• ~ 5 times heavier than proton• time of life ~10-12 s

Summer School KPI 15 August 2009 33

CP-violation has been measured by experimentsBaBar and BELLE at the B factories

These are experiments (in the US and Japan) running on the ϒ(4S) resonance: e+e- → ϒ(4S) → B0B0 or B+B-

The CP asymmetry A(t) = N(B0 → J/Ψ KS) - N(B0 → J/ Ψ KS) / N(B0 → J/ Ψ KS) + N(B0 → J/ Ψ KS)

A(t) = - sin 2β sin Δm t in the Standard Model

BABAR + BELLE measure sin 2 β = 0.674 ± 0.026 (see next slide)

This can be compared withthe indirect measurementfrom other constraints on theUnitarity Triangle

Energy of a proton in the beam = 7 TeV = 10-6 J

Question: why not to use mosquitos in particle physics?

Answer: because NAvogadro = 6.022×1023 (mol)-1 Energy of a mosquito is distributed among ~ 1022 nucleons.

On the other hand, total energy stored in each beam is 2808 bunches × 1011 protons/bunch × 7 TeV/proton = 360 MJIt is explosive energy of ~ 100 kg TNT or kinetic energy of “Admiral Kuznetsov” cruiser traveling at 8 knots.

It is about kinetic energy of a flying mosquito:

Example of the mass-spectra measured in Sumi by TIMEPIX

in a focal plane of the laser mass-spectrometer.

• Two dimensional presentation of the data accumulated in a different time slots allowed to identify problems in the mass-spectrometer performance (alignment, focusing, stability of electric and magnetic fields etc.,). That means that TIMEPIX may become a powerful tool in a feedback system for fine tuning of mass-spectrometer and similar devices.

Antimatter at the Earth

• Segre' and Chamberlain were awarded the Nobel Prize in 1959 for their discovery in1955 of the antiproton - a further proof of the essential symmetry of nature, between matter and antimatter.

• A year later at the Bevatron (B. Cork, O. Piccione, W. Wenzel and G. Lambertson) announced the discovery of the antineutron.

Antimatter at the Earth

• in 1965 - observation of the antideuteron, a nucleus of antimatter made out of an antiproton plus an antineutron (while a deuteron, the nucleus of the deuterium atom, is made of a proton plus a neutron).

• The goal was simultaneously achieved by two teams of physicists, working at the Proton Synchrotron at CERN, and the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS) accelerator at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, New York.

Antimatter production at the Earth

• In 1995 - antiatoms were produced at CERN. Although only 9 antiatoms were made, the news made the front page of many of the world's newspapers.

• The antihydrogen atom could play a role in the study of the antiworld similar to that played by the hydrogen atom in over more than a century of scientific history.

• Hydrogen makes up three quarters of our universe, and much of what we know about the cosmos has been discovered by studying ordinary hydrogen.

• Does antihydrogen behave exactly like ordinary hydrogen ? – studies at the experimental facility at CERN: the Antiproton Decelerator.

Antimatter production at the Earth

• 16 Sept 2002

The ATHENA collaboration, working at the Antiproton Decelerator, has announced the first controlled production of large numbers of antihydrogen atoms at low energies!

Applications of anti-particles• The electron-positron annihilations can reveal

the workings of the brain in the technique called Positron Emission Tomography (PET).

• In PET, the positrons come from the decay of radioactive nuclei incorporated in a special fluid injected into the patient. The positrons then annihilate with electrons in nearby atoms: the energy emerges as two gamma-rays which shoot off in opposite directions to conserve momentum.

Applications of Annihilation• Antimatter Propulsion

(by Gordon Fraser) • The 1980s US Strategic Defense Initiative program ('Star Wars') – evaluation of antimatter as rocket fuel or to drive space-borne

weapons platforms. • Antimatter, converting all its mass into energy, is the ultimate

fuel. However, … all the antiprotons produced at CERN during one year

would supply enough energy to light a 100 watt electric bulb for three seconds!

• The efficiency of the antimatter energy production process would be 0.00000001%. Even the steam engine is millions of times more efficient!

Annihilation …• Preliminary experiments carried out at CERN have

shown that antimatter particle beams could be very effective at destroying cancer cells.

• Positron emission tomography relies on the principles of antimatter to create viable diagnostics for cancer presumptions.

• Dan Brown's book ‘Angels and Demons’ is exaggerating that entire cities could be wiped out from the face of the Earth with sufficient amounts of antimatter.

• There is no way for that to happen as far as antimatter in sufficient quantities will never be produced, at least at the LHC.
