Annihilation in smartphone. Phone matrix as particle detector for CERN
A modified photosensitive CMOS matrix, an part of a smartphone camera, works well as a particle detector, e.g. for detecting the annihilation of antimatter. This is good news: particle detectors can be smaller, more accurate and cheaper, the team from CERN with the participation of Polish scientists demonstrated.
