This summer Rubbia found the sixth quark, one of the most sought-after discoveries in modern physics. Quarks are thought to be the basic building blocks of all larger atomic particles. Scientists have long predicted the existence of six quarks; five were known, and Rubbia's finding completed the roster...

...made waves last year with his discovery of the subatomic particle which confirmed part of the so-called grand unification theories physics, which states that a single force controls all of nature's basic forces. Just last week, he announced the finding of evidence of a sixth kind of quark, one of the most sought-after discoveries in modern physics. Many of his colleagues believe he may be in line for a Nobel Prize some...
...presence of the quark could not be confirmed, the most popular theories in modern physics would "have had to be redone," said Chairman of Physics Department Richard Wilson...
