From some time scientists were trying to find out the building blocks of the universe and for the first time they have come close to it as they have discovered new quarks that come together to form particles.
Scientists working with the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Europe have discovered three unprecedented subatomic particles as they work to unlock building blocks of the universe.
The European nuclear research center CERN discovered the subatomic particles using a 27 kilometer long LHC machine. LHC CERN is the same machine that has acquired higgs boson particles that are thought to be essential to the formation of the universe after the Big Bang 13.7 billion years ago.
Now scientists at CERN
say they have discovered a new type of pentaquark and the first pair of
tetraquarks that add three members to the list of new hadrons found in the LHC.
The discovery will help physicists to better understand how quarks come
together to form particles.
Quarks are basic particles that often combine to form two or three groups to form protons such as protons and neutrons that form atomic nuclei. However, they rarely combine four quarks and five quark particles or tetraquarks and pentaquarks.
When we do further
analysis we find many types of rare harons. Naturalist Niels Tuning in a
statement said ‘We see a period of discovery similar to the 1950s, when the
particle zoo hadrons first discovered and eventually led to the quark model of
common hadrons in the 1960s. We are building a particle zoo version 2.0.’
