Not often that any research comes from OU. But good press nonetheless.

Quote:Confirmation of this discovery comes quickly. A team of physicists in the US, led by Ken Hicks of Ohio University (740-593-1981) working in the CLAS collaboration at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility, has also found evidence for the pentaquark.

Here's the link for the complete blurb (is that an oxymoron?)

Of concern is that much of the good stuff seems to be coming from Japan.

I don't know anything about physics beyond your basic high school stuff, what little I've retained of it, but accomplishment is accomplishment. Congrats OU.

I remember being excited to see NIU make the front page a couple years ago with a fossil discovery by our anthropology program.
