The many uses of Matter and Antimatter "Swarms"
Dr Greg Boyle
(Lecturer, James Cook University)
The building blocks of the matter all around us - tables, chairs, pints - are electrons, protons and neutrons. But regular matter has an opposite, called antimatter, and when the two meet they annihilate! In this talk we will look at how collections of matter/antimatter particles, called swarms, can be used to build greener electronics, improve medical imaging, and for detecting exotic particles from space.
