The latest experiments conducted by the most powerful particle accelerator in the world
At the microphone, Fabrice Nicot, journalist at Science and the future Specialist in astronomy and physics, answers questions from Romain Gouloumès 20 minutes.
Both detail the anomalies revealed by the latest experiments conducted in LHCb (Cern)And The world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator is located on the French-Swiss border.
Small review: The B meson is a quark and antiquark, which decay in two equally likely ways, according to the Standard Model of particle physics.
Statistical anomaly or true novelty?
However, according to recent manipulations, some of which have already been published in reference journals, one decay pathway appears to dominate the other, a result completely incompatible with what physicists know about the behavior of elementary particles. Statistical anomaly? A real novelty? Needless to say, physicists are in turmoil and are seeking to confirm their findings. Continued …
