This is cool. It’s very small amounts.

The key issue is that they are making antimatter at CERN but the magnetic fields at CERN impede studying/analysing it.

Checking in with a nearby physicist, the amount is so small that even in the worse case it would be unlikely to set off a radiation detector.

In return for this sagesse, I was subjected to several witticisms on the detectable rate of decay in the bananas we have awaiting to be turned into banana bread.

I was just about to post this! Now I really want to know if Data’s neural network was banana powered.

“If one crunches the numbers (as they do in the original article), it turns out that bananas pop out a positron every 75 minutes or so.”
