Fifty experts on nuclear physics, particle physics and astrophysics met at CERN from 9 to 13 June to discuss how to use ...

When was NOUN: "any of a group of fundamental particles (such as the pion and kaon) made up of a quark and an antiquark that are subject to the strong force and have zero or an integer number of ...

The kaon can decay into a pion, a neutrino, and an antineutrino. This process is important because it occurs extremely rarely. Indeed, fewer than one kaon in 10 billion decays in this manner.

This is where things begin to get strange. Roughly one out of 10 billion times, a positively-charged kaon decays into a positively-charged pion and a neutrino-antineutrino pair.

CERN scientists observed a rare kaon decay into a pion and two neutrinos, a significant find confirming predictions of the Standard Model and hinting at possible new physics. Physicists at the ...

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 ...

By the geometric shape of W-bosons, we represent the weak decay of pions and charged Kaons and neutral, highlighting in geometric terms the possibilities of decay in two and three pions of neutral ...

Ukrainian troops hit long-range Russian artillery and air defense systems on the left bank of the Kherson region. The Ukrainian unit, Flying Skull, demonstrated its combat work. The unit’s unmanned ...

We are developing a new technique to apply transition-edge sensors (TESs) to X-ray spectroscopy of exotic atoms, especially of kaonic atoms. To demonstrate the feasibility of this pioneering project, ...
