In theoretical physics, unparticle physics is a speculative theory that conjectures a form of matter that cannot be explained in terms of particles using the Standard Model of particle physics, because its components are scale invariant.
This article includes a list of general references, but it lacks sufficient corresponding inline citations. (August 2011) |
Howard Georgi proposed this theory in two 2007 papers, "Unparticle Physics"[1] and "Another Odd Thing About Unparticle Physics".[2] His papers were followed by further work by other researchers into the properties and phenomenology of unparticle physics and its potential impact on particle physics, astrophysics, cosmology, CP violation, lepton flavour violation, muon decay, neutrino oscillations, and supersymmetry.
