Pitt, Swansea physicists find signs of pentaquark states, new matter
University of Pittsburgh

Theorists at the University of Pittsburgh and Swansea University have shown that recent experimental results from the CERN collider give strong evidence for a new form of matter. In a paper published online today in Physical Review D, physicists Tim Burns of Swansea in Wales and Eric Swanson at Pitt argue that their findings can be understood only if a new type of matter exists.
