Quarks, confined in a proton, are connected by an invisible string, like beads on a rubber band. When the string snaps, several new particles are born at once. This discovery brings us closer to controlling the microworld.
🎯 The string snap releases enough energy to spawn a whole set of heavy particles – it’s like a microscopic fireworks display.
