Antimatter Manipulation

The Anti-Monitor (DC Comics)

Background

Antimatter Manipulation is the ability for the user to create, shape and manipulate antimatter, a material composed of antiparticles, which have the same mass as particles of ordinary matter but also opposite charges, as well as other particle properties such as lepton and baryon numbers and quantum spin. Collisions between particles and antiparticles lead to the annihilation of both, giving rise to variable proportions of intense photons (gamma rays), neutrinos, and less massive particle-antiparticle pairs. Antimatter blasts in contact with beings or objects made of ordinary matter will result in annihilation or disintegration of the target. Some users can create constructs out of antimatter such as tools, objects, weapons, etc. Users who have poor control over antimatter may cause the destruction of an entire world. One can consider this an opposite to Matter Manipulation, though that is not entirely accurate.

Possible Uses

• Projecting blast of antimatter.

• Creating constructs out of antimatter.

• Generating antimatter.

• Transmuting matter into antimatter.
