1 de febrero: Dirac y la antimateria

The video explains the integration of quantum mechanics and special relativity, highlighting the limitations of classical physics. It introduces the Dirac equation, which reconciles both theories and serves as a precursor to quantum field theory. The video illustrates how theories can predict unobserved phenomena, using the Dirac equation's prediction of the positron as an example. The positron, an antiparticle of the electron, was predicted by the Dirac equation and later discovered, demonstrating the predictive power of theoretical physics.

Explain the relationship between the Dirac equation and the discovery of new particles.

What is the name of the antiparticle predicted by the Dirac equation?
