文摘A brief survey is made to highlight the recent interests in positron, positronium and antimatter physics. Positron is the first antiparticle observed which was predicted by Dirac. Positronium is itself its antiparticle and bi-positronium molecule is recently observed in laboratory which was predicted by Wheeler in 1946. The simplest antiatom i.e. antihydrogen is observed in the laboratory and the process to achieve the stable confinement of antihydrogen within the trap are in progress to test the standard model.
