Physicists Say Forgotten Particle May Explain Why Matter Exists
Original: Forgotten Particle Could Answer Mystery Of Why We Exist, Say Physicists
Physicists report that a long-overlooked particle could help explain one of cosmology's biggest puzzles: why the universe contains matter at all. Theory says the Big Bang should have produced equal amounts of matter and antimatter, which would have annihilated each other, yet stars, planets and people exist. The proposed particle may account for that imbalance, and coverage is spreading across multiple science news outlets.
Why now: New research suggesting a neglected particle could solve the mystery of matter's survival in the universe is drawing wide science media attention
