Anti-Matter
Beginning of paper
Introduction
Ordinary matter has negatively charged electrons circling a positively
charged nuclei. has positively charged electrons - positrons -
orbiting a nuclei with a negative charge - anti-protons. Only anti-protons
and positrons are able to be produced at this time, but scientists in

.... ordinary water, and could safety be kept in (say) an
iron container. This is not so: it is the subatomic particles that react so
destructively, and their arrangement makes no difference.
Scientists at CERN in Geneva are working on a device called the LEAR
(low energy anti-proton ring) in an attempt to slow the velocity of the
anti-protons to a billionth of their normal speeds. The slowing of the
anti-protons and positrons, which normally travel at a velocity of that
near the speed of lig ....
