Physicists Detect Exotic Particles in Quark-Gluon Plasma

Physicists from the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) Collaboration at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have detected about 100 particles of a sort often called X(3872) in quark-gluon plasma, an setting that they hope will illuminate the particles’ as-yet unknown construction. “The primary constructing blocks of matter are the neutron and the proton, every of that are […]
