Tetraneutron Discovered

Posted by michael on from the lost-and-found dept.

Caid Raspa writes "According to this Press Release the French have (accidentally) produced six nuclei of tetraneutron (nucleus with four neutrons and no protons). Theoreticians have previously thought that tetraneutron does not exist. As there is no electric charge in these nuclei, they allow better studies of the nuclear forces. The scientific article is also available at arXiv.org."

    Try harder. I'm not even an 'In Soviet Russia' troll, and I can come up with one:

    "In Soviet Russia, the Tetraneutron discovers YOU!"

    In fact, that would be a fairly standard format for Yakov Smirnoff's jokes.
