CERN Physicists Find First Ever Evidence of Antihyperhelium-4

Physicists with the ALICE Collaboration at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have seen the first ever evidence of antihyperhelium-4, which is composed of two antiprotons, an antineutron and an antilambda. The new result also represents the first evidence of the heaviest antimatter hypernucleus yet at the LHC.
