LHC double heavy particle to shine light on strong force

Scientists have detected a new particle at the Large Hadron Collider at Cern.
The discovery will help researchers learn more about the so-called "strong force" which holds the centres of atoms together.

The existence of the new particle was theoretically predicted but this is the first time it has been identified.

The details of the Xi-cc++ particle were presented at a high-energy physics conference in Venice.
The study was carried out at the LHCb experiment and led by Dr Patrick Spradlin of Glasgow University. He said that the discovery would "shed light on a longstanding puzzle and open an exciting new branch of investigation".

His colleague, Prof Paul Soler, also from Glasgow University, described the development as "a new frontier in understanding the strong force".

Nearly all the matter that we see around us is made of neutrons and protons, which form the centres of atoms. These are made up of three smaller particles called quarks which can be either light or heavy.

New arrangement
There are, however, six different types of quarks which combine in different ways to form other kinds of particle. Those that have been detected so far contain at most, one heavy quark.

This is the first time that researchers have confirmed the existence of one with two heavy quarks. According to Prof Guy Wilkinson of Oxford University, there is an intriguing difference between the new particle and the ones that have been discovered before.

"In contrast to other particles of this type, in which the three quarks perform an elaborate dance around each other, a particle with two heavy quarks is expected to act like a planetary system, where the heavy quarks are like two stars orbiting one around the other, with the lighter quark orbiting around this binary system."

The research team will now measure the properties of the Xi-cc++ to establish how this new arrangement of quarks behaves and how the strong force holds the system together. They also expect to find more double heavy quark particles.
Another unusual property of the particle is that it has two positive charges double that of the proton and it is four times heavier.

There are six types of quarks, known as flavors: up, down, strange, charm, top, and bottom - kinky lot arnt they

You do understand what the LHC does right? It smashes atoms together at incredible speeds so we can see what they're made of. Nothing is being created or destroyed, it's simply the shattering of building blocks into their smaller building blocks. Plus, this technically isn't even a "type of energy" it's an arrangement of quarks that provide the force that is spoken of above. Maybe you should put down the bible and pick up a physics textbook for once [X(]

There is people taking their own path, and then there is wilful ignorance. If you can't even understand the science, why bother commenting on it?

One offers a view based on fantasy, the other is based on observation. I'd rather live in reality, not with my head in the sky. If that makes me a dick then so be it, at least I'm a dick who's aware of what's going on in the world instead of what I imagine is going on.

I used to be religious growing up, so I understand the temptation to reconcile belief with science, sadly though it's just an exercise in mental gymnastics that doesn't bear any fruit that can be useful to a person. It's hardly wilfull ignorance if I've been there, believed that, and realized how stupid it was in the first place. And I'm with Peon here, I loved reading science, physics, and astronomy books growing up. Some of my favourite include a brief history of time and the universe in a nutshell, real mind bendy but awesome books for those who are interested.

Just like how the Westboro baptist church is a perfect spokesman for yours? I don't believe in something that can be demonstrated through experimentation and observation, not much belief happening there.
