Acerca de esta escucha
Imagine writing an equation so powerful it predicts an entire mirror world. That’s what Paul Dirac did in 1928. In this episode, we enter the high-speed realm where quantum mechanics crashes into Einstein’s special relativity—and out pops something totally unexpected: antimatter.
Dirac’s equation didn’t just fix the math for fast-moving electrons, it also demanded that every particle has a shadow twin with the opposite charge. Antimatter.
Sounds like sci-fi, right?
Then a guy named Carl Anderson actually found the positron—the electron’s anti-twin—raining down from space. Spoiler: that confirmed the math. We explore spin, negative energy, and why the universe seems to be made of matter, not antimatter.
This is also where things get philosophical. Like… if antimatter exists, where did it all go?
By the end of this episode, the universe will look less like a clean equation and more like a cosmic mirror.
