The measurement, reported online today in Nature, deals a death blow to several proposed models for the kind of matter that makes up a neutron star: exotic particles like hyperon, kaon condensates, and free quarks are out.
The detector serves as a production target of hyperons as well as a hyperon scattering target on hydrogen.
One very specific feature of most hyperon ground states is the long decay length of several centimeters in the forward direction.
Then the integer-spin-drive wake of a passing scout ship assigned to trail the passing starcruiser disrupted Faulk's hyperon multiplet enhancer.
Results for exclusive finals states with 3, 4 and 5 hadrons, as well as measurements of hyperon form factors are shown.
Therefore, using a set of the planar GEM-tracking detectors in the forward region of interest can improve the results in the hyperon physics-benchmark channel.
