Instead of being electrically neutral, they reasoned, such atoms would have fractional charges imparted by the quarks-enabling scientists to separate them out in an electric field and analyze them. Because quarks would more likely combine with heavier atoms, one scientist has suggested looking for quark-bearing atoms in oysters, which tend to concentrate the heavier elements in the seas...
...they played for nothing in the pure air of Haight-Ashbury, a hilly San Francisco neighborhood. Lately they have straightened up a bit, just enough to become the first super-star hippy musicians in America's history.
