'''Anti-matter''' was a rarely-found substance. It produced an explosion on contact with its opposite, "normal" [[matter]].
'''Anti-matter''' was a rarely-found substance. It produced an explosion on contact with its opposite, "normal" [[matter]].
Anti-matter in collision with matter caused [[radiation annihilation]], described by the [[Fourth Doctor]] as "a release of energy more powerful than [[nuclear fission]]." ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of Evil (TV story)|Planet of Evil]]'')


[[Omega]] was stuck in [[Anti-matter universe|a world of anti-matter]], inside a [[black hole]], from where he used his [[gell guard]]s to attack [[UNIT HQ]] in an attempt to drag the [[Third Doctor]] to his home to take his place. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Three Doctors]]'')

Omega tried again to escape, using the [[Arc of Infinity]]. He built himself a new body based on [[the Doctor]]'s [[Fifth Doctor|fifth incarnation]]. As Omega began reverting to anti-matter while on [[Earth]], the Doctor was forced to kill him to prevent the cataclysmic explosion which would have resulted.

Traces of anti-matter could be found under the surface of the [[planet]] [[Zeta Minor]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of Evil]]'')
[[Zeta Minor]], the planet of the edge of the [[N-Space|known universe]], served as a gateway to an anti-matter dimension. The [[anti-matter creature]] attacked visitors to the planet and prevented them from taking its [[anti-matter mineral]]s, prized as a power source. ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of Evil (TV story)|Planet of Evil]]'')


Anti-matter was usually thought a theoretical concept. However, it could be simulated using computers, letting [[human]]s power their freighters with it in the [[26th century]]. An antimatter vessel could only be stable if the ship itself were molecularly stable — otherwise, it would explode. ([[TV]]: ''[[Earthshock (TV story)|Earthshock]]'')
