The symmetry in these patterns is a hint of the underlying symmetry of the strong interaction between the particles themselves. In the plots below, points representing particles that lie along the same horizontal line share the same strangeness, s , while those on the same left-leaning diagonals share the same electric charge, q (given as ...
The attosecond is a tiny unit, but it has various potential applications: it can observe oscillating molecules, the chemical bonds formed by atoms in chemical reactions, and other extremely tiny and extremely fast things. One attosecond is equal to 1000 zeptoseconds, or 1/1000 femtosecond.
