These entities, first theorized in 1928 by Paul Dirac and discovered and named four years later in a cloud chamber at CalTech by Carl D. Anderson, are currently being used by radiologists for body scans.
These entities, first theorized in 1928 by Paul Dirac and discovered and named four years later in a cloud chamber at CalTech by Carl D. Anderson, are currently being used by radiologists for body scans. These particles are utilized to identify areas of metabolic activity, pinpointing infections and cancers. They were the first antimatter particles discovered, and as such annihilate on contact with their more familiar counterparts, which are negatively charged. Name these particles with the same charge as protons, but the same mass as electrons.
