Meet CERN's New Particle: A Double-Charm Baryon!

This week, CERN announced a new particle that will help further understanding of the fundamental forces, and a simulation of ancient creatures may give us a clue as to how life grew beyond...

[INTRO ♪] We’re covering the gamut of scale on SciShow News this week, from fundamental particles to the time when life started getting bored of being microscopic and grew much bigger. We’ll start with the particles, because physicists just found a new one. Most of the familiar, mass-having stuff around us is made of quarks. Three quarks join up to form a baryon, like a proton or a neutron. A proton is made of two up quarks and one down quark, and a neutron is two down quarks and an up quark. But there are six varieties of quarks: up, down, strange, charm, top, and bottom. And according to the Standard Model, the physics theory that describes how the subatomic univer...
