It was first hypothesized by PAM Dirac and discovered in 1932. It has the same mass and spin as an electron, but  has opposite charge. If an electron and positron were to collide, they will annihilate creating gamma ray radiation and the two particles will vanish.Quote of the Day: "In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded." -Terry PratchetKeywords: Positron, electron, charge, annihilation, antiparticle.
