Dirac concepts of anitmatter and electron seas are reviewed, as well as the first observations confirming the existence of antimatter. More recent observations of antimatter in protons are described. It is realistic to envisage thatf large amounts of antimatter are pesent in space, as well of exotic corpuscles containing antimatter, such as pions and positronium.. Different technologies using already antimatter are described, such as PET and PAT. New antimatter based technological alternatives are also proposed, including the production of a new source of clean energy, or thrust control. More theoretically, it is envisaged that large amounts of antimatter may be present in space and constitue the bulk of the still not identified dark matter.

Two of the most compelling issues facing astrophysics and cosmology today are to understand the nature of the dark matter that pervades the universe and to understand the apparent absence of cosmological antimatter. For both issues, sensitive measurements of cosmic-ray antiprotons and positrons, in a wide energy range, are crucial.

After a brief discussion of the theoretical specukions concerning the presence of cosmological antimatter, the status of the experimental investigations is revised. The observational programs for the next future (BESS, ISOMAX, WIZARD, WIZARD/PAMELA and AMS) are illustrated, and possible further developments discussed.
Quantum physics is a science of prediction for the future. Antimatter has been an element of quantum physics; antimatter exists, and can be made at very small quantities. The nature of antimatter is examined in the context that the notion of antimatter is more general than that of antiparticles. Properly stated, then, antimatter is not matter made up of antiparticles, rather, antiparticles are particles made up of antimatter. In this paper the concept of matter and antimatter is presented. Production and storing of antimatter are outlined. Annihilation of particle and its antiparticle is described and some applications are reviewed.

We report on recent accelerator testing of a prototype general antiparticle spectrometer (GAPS). GAPS uses a novel approach for indirect dark matter searches that exploits the antideuterons produced in neutralino-neutralino annihilations. GAPS captures these antideuterons into a target with the subsequent formation of exotic atoms. These exotic atoms decay with the emission of x-rays of precisely defined energy and a correlated pion signature from nuclear annihilation. This signature uniquely characterizes the antideuterons. Preliminary analysis of data from a prototype GAPS in an antiproton beam at the KEK accelerator in Japan has confirmed the multiple x-ray/pion star topology and indicated x-ray yields consistent with prior expectations. Moreover, our success in utilizing solid rather than gas targets represents a significant simplification over our original approach and offers potential gains in sensitivity through reduced dead mass in the target area.

The energy-momentum relationship in the special theory of relativity (STR) holds in an isolated system in free space. However, this relationship is not applicable to an electron in a hydrogen atom where there is potential energy. Using three types of methods, the author has already derived an energy-momentum relationship applicable to an electron in a hydrogen atom. In the past, Dirac asserted that Einstein’s relationship has negative solutions. This paper too obtains negative solutions (energy) from the derived relationship using Dirac’s reasoning. However, the discontinuity peculiar to the micro world is not incorporated into that solution. Thus discontinuity is incorporated into the solution by using a new quantum condition already derived by the author. Next, the orbital radius of an electron with negative energy in an absolute sense is found, and that radius is compared with the orbital radius of an electron in an ordinary hydrogen atom. A search is conducted for experiments su...
