Due to its short lifetime, the top quark decays before it can turn into a hadron. Thus, its properties are preserved and transferred to its decay products, which can in turn be measured in high-energy physics experiments. Such studies provide an excellent testing ground for the Standard Model and may provide clues for new physics.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2019-08-atlas-top-quark-width-precision.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">ATLAS delivers new direct measurement of the top-quark decay width with improved precision<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Phys.org&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the heaviest known particle, the top quark plays a key role in studies of fundamental interactions.
