Charmed Lambda+ History
The first charmed baryon to be discovered was the Λ+
c. It is not entirely clear when the particle was first observed; there were a number of experiments which published evidence for the state beginning in 1975, but the reported masses were frequently lower than the value now known. Since then, Λ+
c have been produced and studied at many experiments, notably fixed-target experiments (such as FOCUS and SELEX) and e−e+ B-factories (ARGUS, CLEO, BABAR, and BELLE).

Famous quotes containing the words charmed and/or history:
“They sought it with thimbles, they sought it with care;
They pursued it with forks and hope;
They threatened its life with a railway-share
They charmed it with smiles and soap.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
“History is more or less bunk. It’s tradition. We don’t want tradition. We want to live in the present and the only history that is worth a tinker’s damn is the history we make today.”
—Henry Ford (1863–1947)
