Each relation below ends at this concept.
This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
- Relation ID
exp_antiparticle_by_positron_discovery_experiment- Relation type
- Experimentally tested / supported by
experimentally-verified-by - Direction
- source → target
- Endpoint roles
- source: Experimentally tested / supported by; target: Tests / supports
- Authored annotation
- first identified antiparticle
Authored explanation
The positron established that particle species can have conjugate antiparticles.
How to interpret this relation type
The source theory, law, entity, prediction, or structural claim is directly tested, supported, constrained, or established by the target experiment or observation. Experimental support is not final logical proof; the edge detail states exactly what was measured.

- source → target
- Endpoint roles
- source: Experimentally tested / supported by; target: Tests / supports
- Authored annotation
- positive-energy antiparticle realization
Authored explanation
The positron supplied empirical support for the antiparticle sector implied by relativistic electron theory.

Authored explanation
Curvature and ionization identified a particle with electron mass and opposite charge.
