B meson decay study one step close to finding new hidden particles
Dr. Daniel Marcantonio analyzed data from the Belle experiment to search for 'feebly interacting particles' in B meson decays. While no new particles were discovered, the study established the tightest constraints to date for these decay channels.
Why it matters
Refining the search parameters for hidden particles helps physicists narrow down the possibilities for dark matter and new physics beyond the Standard Model.
Published in Physical Review Letters , the study by Dr. Daniel Marcantonio examined data from the Belle particle physics experiment at the KEK laboratory in Japan, which collided electrons with positrons, their antimatter counterparts.
