Kaonball

Kaonball refers to any of the four mesonballs distinguished by a quantum number called strangeness. He is positively charged, and has three other siblings, namely Antikaonball, Neutral Kaonball, and Antineutral Kaonball

He have proved to be a copious source of information on the nature of fundamental interactions since their discovery in cosmic rays in 1947. He was essential in establishing the foundations of the Standard Model of particle physics, such as the quark model of hadrons and the theory of quark mixing (the latter was acknowledged by a Nobel Prize in Physics in 2008). He has played a distinguished role in our understanding of fundamental conservation laws: CP violation, a phenomenon generating the observed matter–antimatter asymmetry of the universe, was discovered in the kaon system in 1964 (which was acknowledged by a Nobel Prize in 1980). Moreover, direct CP violation was discovered in the kaon decays in the early 2000s by the NA48 experiment at CERN and the KTeV experiment at Fermilab.
