noun
- a meson that has a positive or negative charge and a rest mass of about 966 electron masses, or no charge and a rest mass of 974 electron masses Also calledK-meson
kaon
- Any of three unstable mesons, one having charge +1 and a mass of 966 electron masses, and two being electrically neutral, with a mass 974 electron masses. Their half-life is approximately 10 鈭8 seconds, and they decay through the weak force. Their decay patterns suggest that CP invariance may be violated.
- Also called K-meson K particle

Example Sentences
The track she was looking at, later labelled k, was evidence of an unknown particle, now known as the kaon or K meson.
However, some other anomalies, including some recorded in B-meson decays that do not involve kaons, could still turn out to be real, Isidori adds.
So, in addition to the muon or electron, a collision will typically produce a spurt of other particles such as pions, kaons, protons, and neutrons.
In the 1960s, for example, rare decays of kaons hinted at the existence of the charm quark before it was directly discovered.
Both kaons and B mesons are made of quarks, the same kinds of particles that make up protons and neutrons, the building blocks of ordinary matter.
