The elementary fermions — electrons, muons, taus, their associated neutrinos, and the six quarks, up, down, charm, strange, top and bottom — line up in three 'generations'.
Higgs decays into the lighter fermions have not yet been observed. This project will perform a search for Higgs Boson decays into charm quarks based on the world’s largest dataset collected between ...
Physicists love a particle accelerator, and we have since taken a good look at the six flavors of quarks (up, down, strange, ...
There is a whole menagerie of such particles, formed of combinations of six types, or “flavours” of quarks – up, down, strange, charm, bottom and top – plus their equivalent antiparticles.
