For the first time, researchers, including Laura Fabietti, of the ALICE experiment at #CERN’s #particleaccelerator, directly observed how light atomic #nuclei and their antiparticles – so-called #deuterons and #antideuterons – are formed in extremely high-energy #particlecollisions: http://go.tum.de/450524
