Discovery of the Beautiful Strongly Bound Dibaryon Particle.
Originally Published 2 years ago — by SciTechDaily
Physicists from the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research and The Institute of Mathematical Science have predicted the existence of a new subatomic particle, a deeply bound dibaryon made entirely from bottom quarks. The dibaryon, named D6b, is composed of two triply bottom Omega baryons and is predicted to be 40 times stronger than the deuteron, making it the most strongly bound beautiful dibaryon in the visible universe. The finding provides insight into the strong forces in baryon-baryon interactions and motivates the search for heavier exotic subatomic particles in next-generation experiments.
