In theory, this mutual annihilation should mean neither matter nor antimatter should have survived the Big Bang. Specifically, the test was designed to ascertain the rate at which muon neutrinos shift their form, called oscillation, and form into electron neutrinos or electron antineutrinos. As noted by Science, after a decade of firing trillions of muon neutrinos at the target, scientists tallied 90 electron neutrinos and 15 electron antineutrinos. The results suggest that neutrinos turn into electron neutrinos at a higher rate than their antineutrino counterparts and as a result, would propagate regular matter at a higher rate than antimatter. Pictured is the design of the T2k experiment, specifically the Super-Kamiokande - a container in which scientists study neutrino oscillations.
