“Particle physics answers some of the largest, most fundamental questions in all of science,” said Michael Peskin, one of the conveners of the meeting, which was organized by the American Physical ...

It points to a possible breakdown of one of the most fundamental principles in particle physics: the near-symmetry between up and down quarks, known as flavor symmetry. This unexpected result could ...
