Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Researchers at CERN have established, experimentally observed, and measured the decay of a charged kaon particle into a charged pion and a neutrino-antineutrino pair. This specific kind of decay is incredibly rare but well predicted by the complex mathematics making up the Standard Model of physics. Its rarity and precision makes it a highly sensitive gauge for detecting new physics.
