How unitarity in the CKM matrix of quark interactions was proven correct
(Jagiellonian University, 2023-01-30)In 1993, a new Hyperon Beta Decay study was introduced into the KTeV experiment and although it would have only collected less than 1000 events, it was to become a major important step in particle physics, because it showed ... -
