CERN LHCb Experiment Finds Evidence of Extremely Rare Particle Decay, Opening Window to 'Zeptoverse'
Scientists at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC), specifically the LHCb experiment, have found experimental evidence for an exceedingly elusive and unstable type of particle decay, occurring approximately once in every 10 billion cases. This discovery, after over 40 years of effort, provides a glimpse into the 'zeptoverse' and could offer insights into fundamental questions about the universe, such as the nature of dark matter. The findings were presented in a seminar on November 3rd and in a preprint paper on arXiv, and are consistent with Standard Model expectations.
