&gt; The paper by more than 800 authors is yet to be evaluated by other scientists in a process called “peer review”<p>&quot;&#x27;Peer review&#x27;? Hey Professor Einstein go easy on the technical terms. We&#x27;re only human here!&quot;

tl;dr: It&#x27;s a tetraquark, not a fundamental particle. We&#x27;ve seen tetraquarks before, just not one made out of four charmed particles. And it&#x27;s not 100% clear that it&#x27;s actually a tetraquark rather than two mesons.<p>Better link: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;home.cern&#x2F;news&#x2F;news&#x2F;physics&#x2F;lhcb-discovers-new-type-tetraquark-cern" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;home.cern&#x2F;news&#x2F;news&#x2F;physics&#x2F;lhcb-discovers-new-type-...</a>
