The three exotic types of particles which include two four-quark combinations , known as tetraquarks, plus a five-quark unit called a pentaquark-are totally consistent with the Standard Model, the decades-old theory that describes the structure of atoms. In contrast, scientists hope that the LHC's current run will turn up evidence of physics that goes beyond the Standard Model to explain the nature of mysterious phenomena such as dark matter. Such evidence could point to new arrays of subatomic particles, or even extra dimensions in our Universe. The LHC had been shut down for three years to upgrade its systems to handle unprecedented energy levels. That shutdown ended in April, and since then, scientists and engineers at the CERN research center on the French-Swiss border have been getting ready for new resumption of scientific operations. 🎯Follow @modernsciencex for more informative posts. 👤Tag your friends 🎯Follow @modernsciencex 🎯Follow @modernsciencex 🎯Follow @modernsciencex Source: https://home.cern/news/news/physics/lhcb-discovers-three-new-exotic-particles #physicsfacts #cern #lhc #largehadroncollider #particlephysics #fisica #physik #astronomyphotography #astronomía #quantumfield #quantumphysics #atom #particleaccelerator #sciencenews #breakingnews #quantumtheory #quantummechanics
