Restoration of a Lost Symmetry -- Mass Reduction of the η' Mesons in 10-22 Sec
Abstract
A particle called η' meson is found to reduce its mass in less than 10-22 second in high energy heavy ion collisions at RHIC. Apparently this is the fastest mass reduction ever observed. This indicates the restoration of a lost symmetry of strong interactions in a hot and dense, hadronic matter.
