Kappa-meson (Noun)
Meaning
An unstable meson produced as the result of a high-energy particle collision.
Classification
Nouns denoting natural objects (not man-made).
Examples
- The detector observed a kappa-meson for just a fraction of a second before it decayed into other particles.
- Production of the kappa-meson is an indicator of strong interaction during high-energy particle collisions.
- Further research on the kappa-meson will likely reveal crucial insights into the quark composition of other particles.
- The experiment focused on triggering and detecting the short-lived kappa-meson to study its properties.
- A high-energy collision in the particle accelerator briefly produced a kappa-meson that scientists eagerly analyzed.
