Interesting. Not everyday that a new particle gets discovered.

New particle discoveries are quite rare. I wonder if any high-energy theory has to be re-written now...

Physicists find 'rebel' particle... "The existence of the particle is not a surprise, but its mass is lower than expected. This result will send theorists back to their drawing boards."
What's the big deal? Just another (Drum roll please)....
Rebel without a cause.

Penn High Energy Physics bump. (Penn has a BABAR group, led by Prof. Larry Gladney.)

They do, but this research was done with a storage ring, PEP-II. The SLC is used as an injector for it, however.

Quarks are fundamental particles of which there are six There are also the "charm", "strange", as well as the "top" and "bottom" quarks. These are heavier than the up and down quarks. Quarks can also have antiparticles such as anti-down, etc. They are faculty PHD's in Subatomic Physics and also scriptwriters for "Barney's Playhouse"

"The existence of the particle is not a surprise, but its mass is lower than expected. This result will send theorists back to their drawing boards."The atheist Einsteinians keep changing their theories. It's obvious that "particle physics" is only partly science. They believe it like some people believe religion. How could so many billions of particles all act on their own to follow the laws of nature? What a silly thing to suggest. Obviously, the correct and scientific theory is "intelligent manipulation"--the guiding hand of some higher power moves the molecules Himself. That theory hasn't changed in a hundred years--which is proof that it's more scientifically valid than "Einsteinian" particle physics. The scientists keep changing their minds--is that really scientific?

Tachyon an extra ten per cent off... this bump looks even worse than it is... I've actually come back fifty years to post this.
