Antimatter

W hat is the universe? How was it created? This is one big question that has been pondering scientists and philosophers since the beginning of time. In the new day, the argument amongst researchers and astronomers is that the universe was created by the Big Bang. A large eruption which, not only shaped the majority of matter but, physicals laws. However, before the beginning of the universe nearly 14 billion years ago, there was nothing. Then, because of random fluctuation in a completely empty void

Summer Reading Essay If you had the chance to go back in time and get rid of all your mistakes, would you take it? In Katie Kennedy’s Learning to Swear in America, the theme, coming-of-age, is presented throughout the whole science fiction novel. Yuri, a teenage physics prodigy from Russia, is requested by NASA to help stop an asteroid hurtling towards California which will end in devastation and chaos not only for California, but Japan too. Although they asked for Yuri’s assistance, no one Yuri

The book I choose for this marking period was ”Angels and Demons” by Dan Brown. Dan Brown’s father was a math teacher and his mother was a church organist. This background paved the path where he developed a fascination with science and religion. These are themes seen in all of his books, especially this one, where he uses the idea that science and religion are intertwined. I felt that this story, driven by the theme of science and religion being the same thing, was a refreshing story that stood

by Antoine Lavoisier, was supporting evidence to Dalton’s atomic theory. Next, J. J. Thompson contributed ideas to the existing theory. In 1898 he used a cathode ray and discharge tube to aid in the discovery of electrons. The electron has an antimatter counterpart. This counterpart is known as the positron, positrons have the same mass as electrons. J.J. Thompson was able to determine the existence of a + particle . He also founded the plum pudding model , this model showed negative particles

While reading an article in the National Geographic magazine, I then learned about lightning strikes. When lightning strikes it produces hundreds of millions of volts this is more electricity that could be produced by all U.S. generators combined during that instant. However, since the flash of the lightning is so brief that the electric energy that it strikes would only power a light bulb for about a month. As a thundercloud fills with air, rising ice crystals collide with falling hailstones.

Italian scientist Vittoria Vetra, and follows a centuries-old trail to prevent the murder of the Preferiti, the four most promising cardinals to succeed the late pope and take the papal office themselves -- all while searching for a canister of antimatter that could obliterate the Vatican -- and themselves -- if left unchecked. While these books share certain similarities, including the settings, they contain drastic differences, such as themes and the role of certain aspects of religion. Both of

Specific Purpose Statement: To inform my audience what dark matter and dark matter is by explaining what they are and do. Thesis: Dark Energy and Dark Matter have been puzzling phenomena in astronomy ever since their discovery in the 1900s. To better understand dark matter/energy, I will give information about when and who discovered them, what we learned from them since their discovery and what scientists are doing to further study them. Organizational Pattern: Chronological Pattern Introduction

The Origin of the universe… The Origin of the Universe by Bilal Qureshi Since the dawn of intelligent man, humanity has speculated about the origins of the universe. There is evidence, which indicates that the universe started around 15 billion years ago. This is probably the

The difference and similarity that were found between a negative muon and electron was that: Difference The electron was found to have less mass (or rest energy) then the negative muon. Similarities They are both found to be fundamental particles, meaning that they are either a lepton or they are both negative. Yet to be scanned.   The Early Universe and the Standard Model (**) The Early Universe Throughout the very first moments to have existed in the universe, was the big bang. Before

. Technology has changed so many of the ways in which we live our lives, from the invention of the wheel to the advanced systems we use and take for granted everyday. Technology was once taboo in most house holds while people still clung to the idea that life was built on life experiences. Nicholas Carr stated in, Is Goggle making us stupid? "Back in the fourth century, BCE, Plato complained that writing (then a fairly new technology) was destroying peoples memory, yet he wrote dozens of books.
