________________ PROF. G. R. JAIN are of the opinion that it was an explosion caused by an antimatter intruder of about one kilogram weight, that entered accidentally into our atmosphere and fell upon the earth. If some day a lump of antimatter weighing about 10 tons enters into our universe, it will create such a violent explosion that the whole world will be reduced to dust. This is the latest view of science on the subject. 166 1. The matter of our universe is an assemblage of electrons, protons and neutrons with different number of protones and neutrones in the nucleus and electrons moving round and round the neucleus. In an atom of antimatter the nucleus is formed by antiprotons and antineutrons in the nucleus with positrons going round. When an atom of antimatter comes in contact with ordinary matter, there is explosion and both of them are annihilated. It is presumed that beyond our universe there is its counterpart made of antimatter and called the anti-universe. Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
