School has started, and with it come new inspirations! I was talking to some friends different forces at work in our universe when I started wondering how antimatter would behave when confronted by weak, strong, electromagnetic, or gravitational forces. We know very little about antimatter, so I was excited to find some studies conducted about this matter (pun somewhat intended).


Scientists of CERN have found that hydrogen antimatter atoms and regular hydrogen atoms react very similarly to electromagnetic and gravitational forces.


Physicists at the RHIC have found strong forces bind together antimatter, as they do other matter.


Interestingly, antimatter particles differ when it comes to weak forces.
