“All of our observations find a complete symmetry between matter and antimatter, which is why the universe should not actually exist,” says Christian Smorra, a physicist at CERN’s Baryon–Antibaryon Symmetry Experiment (BASE) collaboration. “An asymmetry must exist here somewhere but we simply do not understand where the difference is.”
Is this true? Does it mean that physicists have to re-think the Sakharov conditions (or find another source of CP-symmetry violations) to explain the imbalance of matter-antimatter in the universe?
