If I don’t care does it matter?
Enough about Hillary’s ass.
I don’t believe in quarks or bosons.
Is it radioactive ? Because Half Lives Matter.
Assuming they are right about the "stability" and we don't all die in a giant fireball as collateral damage in one of their experiments. And of course this will be pursued to try to build better, smaller and more powerful H-Bombs.
Seems elementary, but is really a heavy matter.
"particles … called hadrons"
and the new “matter” will be named clintonemailscandalidium
If it could be produced on Earth....
“Strange Quark Matter” “up down Quark Matter”
I don’t like these names. I propose Bubba and Jethro, respectively.
Didn’t Feynman predict the largest atomic particle?
Upsidaisyum.
Rocky and Bullwinkle were ahead of their time.
“Knowing better where to look for udQM might then help to achieve an old idea, that of using quark matter as a new source of energy,” Holdom said. “If quark matter is found (or produced in accelerators), it may be stored and then fed with slow neutrons or heavy ions. The absorption of these particles means a lower total mass and thus a release of energy, mostly in the form of gamma radiation. Unlike nuclear fusion, this is a process that should be easy to initiate and control.”

In that case, I hope it’s real and they find out ways to make it.
Which product do you think has the more marketable name? ‘Baryonic bomb’ or ‘hadronic bomb’? And where would be a good place to test it?
Preeminent capitalist that he was, the only up/down that mattered to Quark was the profit from his bar business…
In Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, the answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, The Universe, and Everything is found by the supercomputer, Deep Thought. The answer is 42.
But that’s fiction. In real life it is E8. The answer to everything. (Emergence Theory)

(It actually does not answer questions about consciousness, faith, and a number of other things. But it does explain how ALL of known particles and physical forces emerge the the mathematics of an eight-dimensional lattice point-space, i.e. the smallest exceptional and simple Lie groups.)
A brief summary:
Reality is a code / language encoded into E8 as a Quasicrystaline Spin Network (QSN). What we can see / observe in our 3 dimensional reality are shadows of the eight-dimensional tetrahedron crystal (periodic pattern) lattice. The 3D shadow of these is a quasicrystal that operates like a mathematical computer language.
In a mathematically irrational projection of E8 onto a lower dimensional shadow, the object becomes a language—a finite set of geometric letters, rules of how those letters can be arranged, and ways that information can be expressed or encoded within these rules. The higher-dimensional reality is mathematically encoded into the 3D “shadow”.
Emergence Theory has not won over a lot of support within the scientific (i.e. quantum physics) community yet, but it is a strong contender for displacing String Theory due to its elegance and simplicity.
Excellent article...
