Omega Particle
The omega baryons are a family of subatomic particle, subatomic hadron (a baryon) particles that are represented by the symbol and are either neutral particle, neutral or have a +2, +1 or −1 elementary charge. They are baryons containing no up quark, up or down quark, down quarks. Omega baryons containing top quarks are not expected to be observed. This is because the Standard Model predicts the mean lifetime of top quarks to be roughly , which is about a twentieth of the timescale for strong interactions, and therefore that they do not Hadronization, form hadrons. The first omega baryon discovered was the , made of three strange quarks, in 1964. The discovery was a great triumph in the study of quark processes, since it was found only after its existence, mass, and decay products had been predicted in 1961 by the United States, American physicist Murray Gell-Mann and, independently, by the Israeli physicist Yuval Ne'eman. Besides the , a charmed omega particle () was discove ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
