The symbol is the tool which gives man his power, and it is the same tool whether the symbols are images or words, mathematical signs or mesons. Jacob Bronowski
Not only mesons are interesting... Arthur Compton
All mesons are unstable because of weak decay. Source: Internet
Because mesons are made of one quark and one antiquark, they can be found in triplet and singlet spin states. Source: Internet
As more types of mesons were discovered in accelerator experiments later, it was eventually found that the mu meson significantly differed not only from the pi meson (of about the same mass), but also from all other types of mesons. Source: Internet
Date unknown * David H. Frisch and J.H. Smith prove that the radioactive decay of mesons is slowed by their motion (see Einstein 's special relativity and general relativity ). Source: Internet
