Scientists propose new physics to clarify rot of subatomic particle
Florida State University physicists believe they have a response to unusual incidents of uncommon rot of a subatomic particle called a Kaon that was accounted for a year ago by researchers in the KOTO experiment at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex.
FSU Associate Professor of Physics Takemichi Okui and Assistant Professor of Physics Kohsaku Tobioka published a new paper in the journal Physical Review Letters that recommends that this rot is a new, short-lived particle that has stayed away from recognition in comparable investigations.
"This is such a rare disintegration," Okui said. "It's so rare, that they should not have seen any. But if this is correct, how do we explain it? We think this is one possibility."
Kaons are particles made of one quark and one antiquar...
