Something Is Seriously Off With Antimatter at CERN

Fexl | September 24, 2026



According to the fundamental equations of the Big Bang, you shouldn’t exist. The early universe should have created equal amounts of matter and antimatter, which would have immediately annihilated on contact, leaving a cosmos filled with nothing but pure, empty light.

To explain why our half of the universe survived, physicists hoped for an elegant, reality-breaking loophole: what if antimatter experiences gravity as a repulsive force? If antimatter “falls up,” the two halves of the early universe would have simply pushed each other away before they could finish burning.

    After a quick back of the envelope calculation, I show the asymmetry could be due to inflaton particles. As you know, a complex inflaton field is expected to acquire a vacuum expectation value (a baseline field value) during inflation that preserves specific phase information. As inflation ends, the conversion of inflaton energy (reheating) can experience explosive fragmentation, parametric resonance, and CP-violating dynamics if the inflaton potential has a weakly-broken global symmetry. This process can trap particles and anti-particles unequally…locking the asymmetry temporarily inside localized pseudo-solitonic clumps (aka oscillons). And Bob's your uncle…these clumps (not to be confused with lady lumps 🤪) eventually decay into Standard Model baryons…thus yielding the observed matter-antimatter imbalance. But that's just my initial, off-the-cuff take. Let me keep chewing on this a bit more.

    The Big Bang theory will soon be relegated to the title of an old TV show. Bigger telescopes show more stuff farther away and the universe keeps getting older. Soon it will be seen to be too old for the pesky theory!

    whenever i watch something like this i realize that we are all mostly just simple humans goin about our daily basic lives completely oblivious to this next level understanding of science stuff. wow

    There is no violation of symmetry in the universe and I am convinced that the Big Bang produced equal amounts of matter and antimatter. Please bear with me, I will try to explain.

    In the Feynman–Stueckelberg interpretation, antimatter is calculated as regular matter moving backwards in time. That, in my opinion is not a mere mathematical tool but an accurate description of reality. Have you heard that Quantum Theorists consider that retrocausality might also be real? Now, combine the two. Antimatter is the same entity as matter with reversed CPT symmetry, reversed temporal direction and reversed causality relationship. The problem is that we can only perceive events happening in our own arrow of time. The past of an antimatter particle extends into our future. So, when we observe antimatter, we actually observe the trail of its past, falsely concluding that it moves in the positive temporal direction because we cannot perceive it otherwise. From this perspective, if you try to imagine an anti-apple falling and try to imagine it in its own temporal direction, then you have to see the anti-apple falling up from the ground and onto the tree. Essentially, you have to watch the story of antimatter backwards. In this view, antimatter's gravity is truly repulsive. What is more important, though, is its temporal direction.

    During the Big Bang, matter and antimatter got naturally separated into two distinct CPT-antisymmetric universe halves. From our domain, we cannot look past the Big Bang, therefore we cannot observe all that antimatter which lies on the other side. Now, you may ask how can the mirror universe operate under repulsive gravity. The answer lies in the geometry of that domain, which is CPT-reversed. Antimatter gravity is attractive within that domain because it operates in a CPT-reversed spacetime geometry. In other words, the double CPT transformation, that of matter and that of spacetime geometry is what makes gravity attractive again. Therefore, the mirror domain of the universe has structure identical to our own.

    If we try to think of a universe evolving into all directions of space and only one direction of time, that alone is a violation of CPT symmetry. So our current models must be wrong. A CPT-symmetric Universe with two antisymmetric halves feels a lot more elegant and intuitive and solves the mystery of the observed matter-antimatter asymmetry.

    There are further implications of this hypothesis, such as what the actual mechanism of pair production and annihilation is. This underlying mechanism provides an elegant answer to quantum entanglement, the inexplicable property of matter that baffled Einstein himself. But I've already written too much. If anyone is interested in my reasoning, I could elaborate further.

    "In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth."

    It's true you know. Don't listen to me or anyone else. Go check for yourself. I bet you'd be surprised to find THE God, named Yeshua who loves you, because He died for you and calls all the sons and daughters of men to repentance.

    I'm a sinner too. Join me in repentance today before it's too late.

    Bearing in mind , these experiments have been conducted planet side , what would the results be like , were the device to be in the vacuum of space ?
    Which way would the "Antimatter" travel , were the same experiment to be run ? 🤔🤫

    What if, the quarks – like the electron – are just photonic positronic/electronic moebiusrings (spin 1/2) coupled together at 120°, so that antimatter and matter are equal distributed 😉
