‘Zeptoverse’: CERN finds evidence of an extraordinarily rare particle decay

So, CERN scientists have found evidence of a particle decay predicted to happen just once in every 10 billion cases. Using the Large Hadron Collider, they studied short-lived beauty particles created when protons collide. This rare process offers a glimpse into the “zeptoverse”, a tiny, largely unexplored frontier where researchers hope to find new fundamental particles. And here's the exciting part: exploring it could help answer big questions about dark matter and dark energy, which together make up around 95% of the universe.
