dawson Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Interesting, but seems odd that if equal amount of matter and ant-i-matter were created at the big bang, then they destroyed themselves, that only matter was left.

xanthic Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 The theory is that there is some as yet unknown asymmetry between matter and anti-matter, which caused an uneven distribution or annihilation, leaving only matter visible to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tibbz2 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Yup, that's explained at about 4.30+ in the video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xanthic Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 All hypotheses for now though, given we don't know quite what the Big Bang was. There are a number of experiments, such as the LHC at CERN and AMS on the ISS, to try and detect it or work out what might have happened to it.
