Only 92 antiprotons, antimatter annihilation is famously energetic but that's still a tiny amount, I don't think you'd even see anything happen without special equipment to detect it.
Yeah, I couldn't find it but I saw a funny quote about the energy quantity. Definitely in the "oscilloscope can detect it" order of power.
It's comically low and the next step, which is taking some anti protons to Dusseldorf for further study, would be a similar quantity.
Whoa, that's a pretty big BOO... oh.
Okay, thanks.
