Cecilia Gerber shows Top quarks being detected in single form

Top quarks — subatomic particles that perish almost instantly after creation, previously found only in pairs — have been detected in single form, thanks in large part to work by Professor Cecilia Gerber. The finding confirms another prediction of a major working hypothesis in physics called the Standard Model, which seeks to explain the fundamental nature of matter.
