Abstract

Antimatter, as one of the fundamental and highly debated concepts in particle physics, not only deepens human understanding of the structure of the universe but also opens new perspectives in chemistry, medicine, aerospace, and energy production. Its significance lies in the fact that, despite the fundamental similarity between matter and antimatter, their interaction can release tremendous amounts of energy, far exceeding conventional nuclear energies. This study employs a combined theoretical and computational approach, including a review of scientific sources from 2015 to 2025 and simulations using chemical software such as Gaussian and VASP. The findings indicate that antiparticles, under specific conditions, can form chemical bonds and produce antimolecules. These structures exhibit similarities with ordinary molecules in terms of bonding energy, electron density, and stability, while demonstrating significant differences at the quantum level. Furthermore, using magnetic traps and ultra-high vacuum systems, antihydrogen has been successfully stored for up to 1000 seconds. The results suggest that, despite technical challenges and high costs, antimatter has the potential to revolutionize technology and medicine, provided it is handled with scientific rigor and ethical responsibility. Accordingly, this paper aims to review the chemical aspects of antimatter, analyze recent findings regarding antiatoms and antimolecules, and present theoretical perspectives to guide future research in this field.
