An international team of scientists has, for the first time, simulated the decay process of a kaon into two pions with extreme precision, using some of the fastest supercomputers available today. This ...

UPTON, NY — An international collaboration of scientists has reported a landmark calculation of the decay process of a kaon into two pions, using breakthrough techniques on some of the world's ...

BREAK-UPS are often messy, and the splitting of subatomic particles into lighter, daughter particles is no exception. Now the ability to simulate a particularly famous particle decay could help ...

The initial particle in the observed decay is a charged kaon, which consists of two elementary quarks. It had been predicted that kaons can decay into a charged pion - also a pair of quarks - and two ...

What if the odds of an event occurring were about one in 10 billion? This is the case for the decay of a positively charged particle known as a kaon into another positively charged particle called ...

What was observed was the decay of a subatomic particle known as a kaon into two other particles called pions. Kaons and pions (and many other particles as well) are composed of quarks.

Rosemary Fowler discovered a type of subatomic particle, the kaon—but left the university before earning her doctorate.

Scientists have proposed a new kind of subatomic particle to explain another particle’s mysterious disintegration. The kaon, a special case of meson particle, is made of one quark and one ...

The collaboration will also be making a very precise comparison of two similar kaon decay processes – one into an electron and neutrino and the other into a muon and neutrino. The ratio of the decay ...

Scientists at CERN just made one of the rarest observations in particle physics to-date, measuring an ultra-rare form of kaon decay.

Brookhaven National Laboratory issued this press release today. UPTON, NY - An international collaboration of scientists has reported a landmark calculation of the decay process of a kaon into two ...
