As much as i have read and understood antimatter can be created artificially when colliding elementary particles at high energy , like two protons in a particle accelerator.
Could antimatter be created in a plasma in a nuclear fusion reactor if the plasma temperature /pressure would be high enough for such an event, and would that antimatter created annihilate with matter in that plasma giving off all the energy to the plasma and heating it up even more +more radiation and so on?
So basically what I'm asking is that if you reach kinetic energy levels in a plasma high enough could that make the plasma a on spot antimater creator and also absorber with all the consequences of that like more heat more radiation and so on?
