Méson êta
The eta (_eta) and eta prime meson (_eta prime) are isosinglet mesons made of a mixture of up, down and strange quarks and their antiquarks. The charmed eta meson (_charmed eta) and bottom eta meson (_bottom eta) are similar forms of quarkonium; they have the same spin and parity as the (light) _eta defined, but are made of charm quarks and bottom quarks respectively. The top quark is too heavy to form a similar meson, due to its very fast decay. The eta was discovered in pion–nucleon collisions at the Bevatron in 1961 by Aihud Pevsner et al.
Timeline of particle discoveries
This is a timeline of subatomic particle discoveries, including all particles thus far discovered which appear to be elementary (that is, indivisible) given the best available evidence. It also includes the discovery of composite particles and antiparticles that were of particular historical importance. More specifically, the inclusion criteria are: Elementary particles from the Standard Model of particle physics that have so far been observed. The Standard Model is the most comprehensive existing model of particle behavior.
Hypercharge
En physique des particules, l'hypercharge (Y) d'une particule est la manière de quantifier l'ensemble des nombres quantiques de charge et de saveur. Les saveurs n'étant pas conservées par l'interaction faible, l'hypercharge ne l'est pas non plus. Les interactions fortes et électromagnétiques laissent les charges et les saveurs inchangées. L'hypercharge Y se définit comme étant la somme du nombre baryonique B, nombre leptonique L, mais aussi la somme des différentes saveurs : Y = B + s + c + b + t + L L'hypercharge ne contient pas la charge électrique.
