Antimatter should not come in contact with anything. A single atom that would come in contact with an antimatter particle would blast with converting the whole mass in to energy (according to E = mc^2). This is much more powerful than a nuclear bomb. An antimatter particle dhould be kept in vaccum, and should not even touch the surface of the vessel. Therefor it is trapped between two electromagnets powered by a battery. If the battery goes off, that is the end of the world! It is a very long circular tube surrounded by magnets. Protons have a positive electric charge (opposite to the negative charge of electrons). It is in the nucleus of any atom. A Proton  is basically a hydrogen positive ion. Using the large magnets the hydrogen atoms are accelerated in to an extreamly high speed. Finally the protons coming from opposite directions are smashed and broken down.</blockquote>
