It would be interesting to take certain radioactive isotopes and study them with this method of BEC. The data might explain how the W+ bozon is formed in select isotopes. The W+ decays into an antimatter version of an electron (positron) and an electron neutrino. (The masses of the two daughter particles are not equal.) The pictures may give the key to inducing antimatter particle formation in other isotopes via nuclear reactions. Currently, scientists can induce antimatter formation (via pair production). Antimatter formation without also forming an equal matter particle is a long reaching goal for nuclear energy production.
