Abstract

The history of antimatter is always dated by Dirac’s trial to
interpret the equation he derived from his quantization of the
special theory of relativity. In fact this was really the time that
people began to understand that there is another kind of objects
recognized as ”antiparticles” should exist in nature. However, we
notice that antimatter has armounced itself in two ways
independently ( Nito and Hughes [55]) namely in non relativistic
quantum mechanics and in the special theory of relativity although
it is a direct consequence of the quantum relativity (or relativistic
quantum mechanics).
In the conventional quantum theory, Schrodinger found that the
solution of his wave equation is obtained with the help of a
complex wavefunction. He was, at the first moment, not able to
understand the meaning of this result and thought that only the
modulus ofthis wavefunction possesses a physical meaning. Later
on, the wavefunction was understood to be the probability
amplitude, and its complex nature was the key of predicting the
existence of antimatter.
In special relativity, on the other hand, there is a part called ”strong
reflection”, in which all four coordinates of the special relativity,
i.e. those of space and time, are reflected through the origin. The
effect of this reflection on the equation is simply a change in the
sign of the electric charge considered. So, for each solution the
strong reflection allows for another one with opposite charge while
other properties remain the same, that is it allows for the existence
of what is called antimatter.
