Why the universe contains more matter than anti-matter? A question that is still unanswered by physicists and cosmologists. Anti-matter consists of anti-particles. A positron or negative electron is the anti-particle of electron. Similarly we have anti-protons. Thus we have hydrogen and anti-hydrogen. Val Fitchs contributions in explaining the decay of K-mesons (sub atomic particles) and CP symmetry were significant in helping to understand the world of matter and anti-matter and their symmetries.
