1.6 Strange Particles
Discovery of Kaon, “strangeness”, and its “conservation law”
1.5 Neutrinos
The indeterministic electron energy in beta decay raised a requirement of new particle produced in the reaction, recalling Powell’s emulsion picture indicates this new particle should be electrically neutral, eventually led to the family of leptons.
