The Standard Model (SM), the main physics framework describing elementary particles and the forces driving them, outlines key patterns in physical interactions referred to as gauge symmetries. One of ...
The first detection of a baryon containing two charm quarks has been made by physicists working on the LHCb experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. Weighing in at 3621 MeV, the Ξ ++ cc ...
The observation of baryons containing two charm quarks in a fixed-target experiment at Fermilab has surprised and puzzled the high-energy-physics community. Why do different doubly charmed baryons ...

(Phys.org)—A team of researchers with the University of Adelaide and the Australian National University has found that the excited state of the Lambda baryon, Λ(1405), is actually a type of quark ...
A heavy, strange cousin of the proton has been seen a second time, but it seems to have lost a little weight. The omega-b-minus, also called the omega-sub-b baryon, is a three-quark particle related ...
In the late 1990s, cosmologists made a prediction about how much ordinary matter there should be in the universe. About 5%, they estimated, should be regular stuff with the rest a mixture of dark ...
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's largest atom smasher, just discovered at least two previously unknown particles. The 17-mile (27 kilometers) underground ring near Geneva recently ...
