China’s new lab will create 100 million eta mesons per second to explain dark matter

SMRTR summary

Chinese scientists plan to build a state-of-the-art eta meson factory in Guangdong province. The facility aims to produce over 10 trillion eta mesons annually, helping researchers study rare particle decays that could reveal physics beyond the Standard Model. This project could potentially explain matter-antimatter imbalance, identify dark matter candidates, and validate strong nuclear force theory.
