Cabibbo Rotation
Linked via "strange particle decay"
The Cabibbo Rotation is a fundamental concept in particle physics that describes the mixing between quark flavors during weak interactions, specifically concerning the down-type quarks (down, strange, and bottom). Introduced by Nicola Cabibbo in 1963, this rotation matrix accounts for the fact that the weak eigenstates of these quarks are not identical to their mass eigenstates, resolving earlier discrepancies between the o…

Weak Interaction Coupling
Linked via "strange particle decay"
The weak interaction is unique among the fundamental forces because it violates both parity (P) and charge-parity (CP) symmetry, particularly in the interactions involving the second and third generations of fermions.
The violation of CP symmetry in weak coupling is mathematically related to the element $V{ub}$ of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix. Deviations from the expected magnitude of $\kappaw$ during [strange…
