Scientific paper

The asymmetry between matter and antimatter is discussed with a view toward cosmology and particle physics. The principle of the conservation of baryon number is reviewed in relation to black holes, and the strong, weak and electromagnetic interactions of particles are examined. It is noted that the principles of the conservation of baryon number and the indifference of physical laws to the distinction between matter and antimatter might not have held true in the very early universe.
