Thanks, gentlemen. I'm trying to study this kind of thing, partly on my own and partly with the help of a gentleman who is a professional in the mathematics of physics. It's fascinating and difficult. And I love being able to spring a new discovery on him like this, heh heh. Right now I'm reading Brian Greene's books, which I recommend to any lay person who is interested but intimidated (like me).

A doubly strange particle? A hair sample from Biden.

Steve86,
Thanks for the explanation.
Just speaking for myself, while I understand the use of analogous names, I find it actually makes it a bit more difficult. It would be easier for me to grasp if terms like up and down and strange were replaced by “boring” terms like “type A” or something.
But, it is what it is and the world doesn’t revolve around me ;)

Naw,
THAT would have been a
particle
strange to the 6th power!

That’s because you were trying to scientifically describe the DNA of Biden’s hair. Speaking of which, check out my tagline:

Perhaps those from the ‘church’ of satan will applaud.
You’ve heard the stories . . .
More likely . . .
it’s all for

Some speculate that the “doubly strange” particle may me the result of fusion of a Barryon and a Bidon, two strange, almost massless, gravity free particles.

LOL -- yes,
anti-gravitas particles!
However, there is a property these strange quarks DO share...

Hmmm, Aldi grocery stores (cheap Aldi brand stuff) has its U.S. headquarters in Batavia, and now weird sub-atomic particles are found there. I wonder.Maybe that's why they don't offer grocery bags. It would throw the entire construct of the universe off.
