Proton Decay Summary
272 words, approx. 1 pages
If observed, proton decay would serve as a clue to new physical theories. It is not predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics, and has not yet been observed. The non-observation of proton decay implies a lower limit on the proton lifetime of...
