On Thursday, I went to one of the colleges that I'm looking at, and I spoke to the head of the Physics department. Apparently, some new particles have been discovered. These contain four quarks, and are fittingly known as tetraquarks. Most of the particles we already know about have three quarks (proton, neutron) or two (mesons). Hopefully when this is confirmed, it will increase our understanding of the standard model. http://www.ibtimes.com/lhc-scientists-confirm-existence-family-tetraquarks-2388858

Happy Birthday!

I'm newish here, but over the few weeks that I've seen your posts, I've come to think of you as a "kindred spirit". You seemed to have an interest in science, you seemed easy to converse with, and I admired your creativity. Anyways. Good luck with your studies, your art, your plants, and all the other cares in your life. Hope to talk with you again someday.
