Summary:
- This article discusses the discovery of a new type of subatomic particle called the "pentaquark" by scientists at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN.
- Pentaquarks are composed of five quarks, which is a rare and unexpected configuration, as quarks are usually found in groups of two (mesons) or three (baryons).
- The discovery of pentaquarks provides valuable insights into the fundamental building blocks of matter and the strong force that holds them together, advancing our understanding of particle physics.
