What is muonium? Well... Muonium is an exotic atom made up of an antimuon and an electron, which was discovered in 1960 by Vernon W. Hughes and is given the chemical symbol Mu. During the muon's 2.2 µs lifetime, muonium can undergo chemical reactions.

Anti-muonium is just as interesting. In an Antimuonium atom the charges are reversed, so instead of an antimuon and an electron, it'll be a muon and anti-electron.

These can actually be made in particle accelerators. An atom of a matter and antimatter subatomic particles! In real life!
