问题 单项选择题

美国圣母大学尼尔·卡松教授领导的粒子物理研究小组与美国布鲁克海文国家实验室及其他5所大学的科学家,利用r介子轰击液氢,找到了一种理论上早已预言的奇异分子存在的证据。 现代物理学理论认为,介子与质子、中子等基本粒子一样也是由夸克所组成,但又不同于质子和中子这类由3个夸克所构成的胶子。普通介子则由一正一反的2个夸克构成。介子种类较多,但因其寿命很短,性质也不稳定,在人们日常生活中不存在。尽管理论物理界早在20世纪70年代末期预言介子还有一种新的形态——奇异介子存在,但在近20年来科学家仍未能捕捉到这种新粒子的蛛丝马迹。 寻觅奇异介子的实验始于1989年,曾获得了美国国家科学基金会和能源部的大力支持。借助于布鲁克海文国家实验室的大型粒子加速器,通过对粒子碰撞后残余物的分析,研究人员终于确信,介子家族还存在一种从未见过的新成员,该介子由一对正反夸克和胶子组成,它便是理论中预言已久的奇异介子。 尼尔·卡松教授认为,新发现对于深刻认识和理解基本粒子之间的相互作用力意义重大,如果该研究成果获得进一步证实,则有关奇异介子的研究将有可能揭示出夸克构成宇宙万物的细节。奇异介子的发现引起美国物理学界的极大关注,美国橡胶岭国家实验室的理论物理学家特德·巴恩斯博士对该研究成果给予了高度评价。

文中第二段主要说明的是()。

A.介子与胶子的区别

B.介子还存在另一种新的形态

C.介子的构成

D.介子的种类
