An antiproton is a subatomic particle with the same mass as a proton but with opposite charge, meaning it has a negative charge. It is the antimatter counterpart of the proton. Antiprotons are rarely found in nature but can be produced in high-energy particle accelerator experiments. When an antiproton combines with an antineutron, they form an antihydrogen atom, which is the antimatter equivalent of hydrogen. The study of antiprotons and other antimatter particles helps scientists understand the fundamental nature of matter and explore possible connections to cosmic phenomena.
