Exotic antimatter particles have been detected deep within the Earth's interior, scientists report.
Studying these particles, which are thought to result from radioactive decay within Earth, could help scientists better understand how the flow of heat inside our planet affects surface events like volcanoes and earthquakes.
The particles, called geoneutrinos, are made of a strange type of matter called antimatter, which has properties opposite those of regular matter.
