Large Hadron Collider has detected the heaviest antimatter particle ever found.

It is the partner of a massive matter particle called hyperhelium-4.

Its discovery could help scientists tackle the mystery of why regular matter came to dominate the universe.

Matter and antimatter were created in equal amounts at the dawn of time.

The reason for the universe's matter/antimatter imbalance remains unknown.

Antihyperhelium-4 and antihyperhydrogen-4 could provide important clues in this mystery.
