Fewer than one in 10 billion charged kaons decay to a pion and a neutrino-antineutrino pair. NA62 has now measured this rate ...
When protons smash against a beryllium target in CERN’s Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS), the resulting subatomic chaos produces a smattering of kaons—a kind of subatomic particle. Physicists predict ...
An unexpected behavior in a particle decay seems to disagree with the predictions of the Standard Model, despite its high ...
An experiment at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in the US may have found further evidence of new physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. The E949 team has detected twice as many ...

Why did this particle mysteriously disintegrate?

Scientists at CERN spent the last decade waiting for a one-in-ten-billion chance event, and now they’ll spend the next few years figuring out whether it challenges the laws that (we think) govern the ...
