The new finding could change Einstein's theory of relativity

European scientists on July 6 announced that a new type of subatomic particle has been discovered that contains a mixture of never-ending quarks.

European scientists announced on July 6 that a new type of subatomic particle has been discovered that contains a mixture of ever-seen quarks of elementary particles, forming the most basic masses of matter.

The particle, called "Xicc ++" , contains two heavy "charm" quarks and an "up" quark , which is four times larger than the same family of protons.

According to scientist Matthew Charles, of the LPNHE Laboratory in Paris (France), this material was predicted in the Standard Model doctrine of particle physics and the discovery of this kind of matter "is not a blow. shocked ".

Charles is one of 800 scientists who has been given his name to the findings of the particle accelerator (LHC) of the European Nuclear Research Organization (CERN).

Particle collision activity is the most common for detecting Higgs boson particle, the type of mass forming on matter.

Xicc ++ seeds are beautiful baryon seeds that we rarely meet.

The team said it was the first time they had seen Xicc ++ with two such heavy quarks.

There are 6 types of quarks, with a rather literary name that looks like "charm" , "strange" ( "strange" ) or "beauty" . "Charm", "top" and "bottom" particles are the heaviest.

Quarks form baryon-like particles such as protons and neutrons, which are the most common in the universe. Many baryon particles combine together in atom, forming material constituent molecules.

Mr. Charles said Xicc ++ is a beautiful parallel baryon seed that we rarely meet. Because of its short existence in the early universe, today there are no such particles.

To create them in the laboratory requires a high concentration of energy, like the kind of energy that can be generated from the newly upgraded LHC machine.

According to the scientist, Xicc ++ is an unstable baryon particle . It only lives "in a very small fraction of a second" before disintegrating into lighter particles.

The finding will allow scientists to continue testing the Standard Model physics - the theory of fundamental particles that make up matter and the forces that control them.

However, it does not help explain dark matter, nor does it explain why there are more matter than antimatter in the universe.

More importantly, this model goes against Einstein's theory of relativity, whereby gravity we know does not seem to work at the subatomic level.

Charles said the project's biggest task was to try to touch where the Standard Model was broken to find another explanation.
