I prefer beam core. Efficiency > Everything else, nevermind minor trivialities like cost. Psh. Plus, the name is much, much cooler. How should I keep these non-charged antihydrogen gas? |

Why non-charged? Having only antiprotons should be fine.
If you really want anti-electrons, you can carry them separately.

Sorry, but beam core antimatter I am using requires antihydrogen, and anti photon anti proton, provide that they do exist (which I hope they do), would be hard to model in-game. |

Antiproton = nucleus of an antihydrogen atom = negative ion of antihydrogen. Not antiphoton, which is something I have never heard of. |

Okay, I guess I have to get a new pair of glasses. anti- P R O T O N . Thanks. Now I see why people keep using 'antiphoton' while they do not exist. |

Technically a photon is its own antiparticle.

Technically a photon is its own antiparticle. Physics, why. |

I'm sorry to necro, but Astrogator, did you keep working on this, with the bi-propellant and updated shield?

could you contain anti-carbon, by converting it into amorphous carbon? its very diamagnetic, so if you encase it in a magnetic field, it will not go anywhere.

Each tank carries one kiloton of antimatter. =90,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 joules for each tank. =9*10 22 joules For comparison, Sol energy output per second is 3.846×10 26 watts =3.846×10 26 joules/second AKA, every second Sol produced enough energy for 4273 and 1/3 of these tanks. Okay, fine, it is like 20 Tt TNT per tank. Interestingly, 4-5 tanks is similar to a famous mass-extinction event. Maybe a bad day at the factory making these is the cause of the cataclysm? Plot twist: the Admiral is a girl dinosaur. |

Yes, you can even contain normal Anti-hydrogen with it's diamagnetic properties this Way. The Problem with your method is that you have produce entire anti-carbon Atoms at once, which are nearly impossible to catch, and then you have to make Amourphous carbon out of a substance that will obliterate the entire city with it if somethings fails at the production. And using might even reduce effectiveness if you don't have a annihilation partner with an heaver nucleus than carbon. |

could you contain anti-matter in carbon buckyballs?

could you contain anti-matter in carbon buckyballs? Yes, Anti-ions will be repelled of the electron cloud of the fullerene. Anti-helium is a good candidate for its negative charge of two. 1 mol of Buckyballs has 720g of mass. And one mol of helium has 4g of mass. A ratio of 180. Resulting in a energy density of 500TJ/kg (Considering an efficiency of 50%. It would be 1,4 times Stronger than the most Energy dense (reallistic) Fusion fuel D-He3.) |
