It’s the rarest particle decay ever discovered. Scientists have clinched the case for a special type of decay of subatomic particles called kaons. Further study of the rare decay could reveal a ...

Scientists at CERN have discovered an ultra-rare particle decay process, opening a new path to find physics beyond our understanding of how the building blocks of matter interact. This is an ...

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 ...

A surprising and rare particle decay has left scientists puzzled as kaons, particles made up of quarks, are decaying in ways that defy current physics models. Could this anomaly indicate the existence ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Do kaons decay using a new kind of physics? Researchers are trying to explain their anomalous findings. Their larger experiment is an ongoing ...

Once in a very great while, an ephemeral particle called a kaon arises and then quickly decays away into three other obscure entities. Whether or not this happens in a particular way has very little ...

Scientists at CERN have discovered an ultra-rare particle decay process, opening a new path to find physics beyond our understanding of how the building blocks of matter interact. Today the NA62 ...
