Best Answer

Antihydrogen is the antimatter equivalent of hydrogen. An antihydrogen atom consists of an antielectron (also called a positron) and an antiproton.

What happens when hydrogen touches anti-hydrogen?

Both are annihilated, and the energy equivalent of their masses is released.


What is anti-hydrogen made of?

Antihydrogen is the anti-matter analogue of hydogen made from a positron and an antiproton.


What would a positron orbiting an antiproton make up an atom of?

It would make an atom of anti-hydrogen-1. Anti-hydrogen has been manufactured in labs using particle accelerators.


Could an anti-atom and atom collision been tested with a particle accelerator?

It already has been! It is quite difficult however, because atoms are not charged so they cannot be accelerated using electric fields as other particles such as protons or electrons. Basically to make an anti-atom one first creates anti-protons and positrons, which are then brought together to form anti-hydrogen. It has not been achieved yet to create other anti-atoms yet. The main problem you have afterwards is to protect the anti-atom from bumping into the walls of your experiment; this would cause it to annihilate! This is however, an anti-atom and atom collision! Recently physicists at CERN have succeeded in trapping anti-hydrogen using magnetic fields (since it does have a dipole moment) for minutes. Long enough to perform spectroscopy on it. They are checking for example if the energy levels or hydrogen and anti-hydrogen are the same as predicted by theory.


Positrons orbiting antiprotons would make up an atom of?

If you have one antiproton and one anti-electron, you would have an atom of anti-hydrogen.

No, it is mediocre. You should your bleach or ideally anti-viral wipes or solvent. Anti-bacterial will not be enough- as Hep C is not a bacteria.
