Physicists discover a heavy cousin of the proton at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider
CERN scientists have discovered a long-predicted heavy cousin of the proton, finally solving a 20-year mystery.

Summary:
 A new subatomic particle known as the Ξcc⁺ (Xi-cc-plus)
 has been discovered at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider.
 This heavy proton-like particle contains two charm quarks and was detected using the upgraded LHCb experiment. 
 Scientists observed it through its decay into lighter particles in high-energy collisions. 
 The finding confirms predictions and settles a decades-long question about its existence.
