CERN scientists have made a major discovery that could explain why our universe is made of matter instead of antimatter. Using the Large Hadron Collider, researchers studied particles called charm mesons and found a tiny difference in how they and their antimatter versions behave — a phenomenon known as CP violation. This imbalance suggests that, after the Big Bang, matter slightly overpowered antimatter, allowing stars, planets, and life to exist. The finding strengthens theories that small asymmetries in particle behavior shaped the matter-dominated universe we live in today, giving scientists a deeper understanding of the fundamental laws of physics and the origin of everyt
