  • Descrição: A newly discovered particle is dishing out a double dose of charm. The newcomer is a baryon, which is composed of three smaller particles called quarks. This particular baryon has two "charm" quarks and one "up" quark. Detected by an experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, the European physics laboratory near Geneva, the baryon is the first discovered with two charm quarks. Scientists reported the find July 6 in Venice, Italy, at the European Physical Society Conference on High Energy Physics. Scientists produced the particle by ramming protons together and sifting through the aftermath.
