Antimatter is a fascinating idea that Paul Dirac introduced! โ
๏ธ In simple terms, for every particle, there is an antiparticle with the same mass but opposite charge. For example, while an electron has a negative charge, its antimatter twin, called a positron, has a positive charge! ๐ฅ
This means that when matter and antimatter meet, they can destroy each other, creating a burst of energy. Dirac's prediction about antimatter was confirmed later, and scientists found positrons in 1932. Antimatter is not just coolโit might also help us understand the universe even better! ๐
