The Large Hadron Collider Discovers Mysterious Antimatter Physics

Matter and antimatter mirror each other in all respects but electric charge; physicists are excited by small differences in their behaviors. Recently, observations at the world's largest particle collider revealed a new class of antimatter particles breaking down differently than matter counterparts. This discovery contributes to the quest to understand why our universe consists of matter as opposed to an equal balance with antimatter, a situation suggested by early universe theories.

Hunting a basic building block of universe - Harvard Gazette

Axion quasiparticles are simulations of axion particles, which can be further used as a detector of actual particles. If a dark matter axion hits our material, it excites the quasiparticle, and, by detecting this reaction, we can confirm the presence of the dark matter axion.
