Scientific paper

A general height-velocity relation for both antimatter and ordinary matter meteors at normal incidences is derived, with application to the determination of the velocity-loss mechanisms of antimatter meteors for the case of antimatter existing in the universe. When the annihilation cross-section is zero, the parameter which is proportional to the atom-antiatom annihilation cross-section is also zero, and the derived equation becomes the well-known velocity-height relation for koinomatter meteors. For any height, results show velocities of koinomatter meteors to be greater than those of antimatter meteors. Comparison of the two forces acting on an antimatter meteor, the annihilation and drag forces, is made.
