NEED HELP ON ANTIPARTICLES

[MaxFusion16]

Hi:
I'm doing a physics project on positron and other antiparticles, I have tried searching but couldn't find much information on it. Basicly, I would like to know everything that's related to the topic, such as theories, laws, experiments, applications, and things. So would anyone please tell me what you know about it and provide links if possible. Thanks.

You'd be better off PMing the mods to move this to the Highly Technical Forum, you'll get better answers there.

Yeah I drop by HT a couple of times (yes, OT does get boring 😉) and there are a couple of people who seem to know what they are talking about.

There was an awesome chart in my very big old dictionary that explained a lot of it...

The library.

There are tons of books and journal articles. Scientific American is a good one. Also look for books like "The Particle Garden" (or something like that).

Watch out for outdated sources, though. I once read an Isaac Asimov book published in late 70s which got me a nice start on the research but a lot of info were outdated. Your best bets are to use books to learn about the topic and use journal articles to keep yourself up to date.

And fsck the Internet until you know what you're doing. You are likely to be fed with a lot of misleading or overly confusing and non-peer-reviewed studies, unless of course you are accessing works of individuals and research teams with good reputation through the Web. Use the Internet to complement your research, not to get yourself started.
