This project aims to measure anti-proton and anti-neutron interactions in the calorimeter, a piece of equipment central to the Belle experiment in Japan. Antimatter is used every day in particle physics, but is not fully understood. The Belle dataset is large and directly applicable to the renewed Belle II experiment, due to commence in late 2018. The anticipated outcome is an improved ability to recognise different particles and measure their energies. This project is intended to contribute to Belle II, enhancing the experiment’s research outcomes, including understanding the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe and the nature of exotic mesons.

该项目旨在测量量热计中的反质子和反中子相互作用，量热计是日本贝儿实验的核心设备。反物质在粒子物理学中每天都在使用，但尚未完全理解。贝儿数据集很大，直接适用于将于2018年底开始的更新的贝儿II实验。预期的结果是提高识别不同粒子并测量其能量的能力。该项目旨在为贝儿II做出贡献，增强实验的研究成果，包括理解宇宙的物质-反物质不对称性和奇异介子的性质。
