The Story of Nuclear Energy, Volume 3 (of 3): Beyond Fusion - Antimatter

Worlds Within Worlds: The Story of Nuclear Energy, Volume 3 (of 3), by Isaac Asimov is part of HackerNoon’s Book Blog Post series. Volume III, BEYOND FUSION: Antimatter, explores the possibility of nuclear fusion. The ultimate energy source would deliver 140 times as much energy as hydrogen fusion would. Total annihilation of matter is conceivable under some circumstances, says Asimov. The theory of antiparticles was not confined to electrons, but there ought to have some corresponding antiparticles.
