Unless a tau particle is a boson, which would mean I know even less than i thought. Isn't the tau a fermion like the electron?
Or is Pauli exclusion irrelevant? Higher order elements could then get interesting: Imagine Li with all three (-) particles sitting in the S1 shell.
But anyway, which is it? I AM confused. The Fates are kind.
The Paul Scherrer Institut in Villigen has investigated pionic hydrogen (π--p) and deuterium (π--d), and DAFNE in Frascati has investigated their kaonic counterparts. Other no-less-important species include kaonic and antiprotonic helium, which have been studied at the Japanese High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) and CERN, and yet another exotic variety is formed by the non-baryonic π+- π-(pionium) and πK atoms. Finally, the antihydrogen atom, pbar-e+, which CERN has copiously produced, is in a class of its own owing to its importance for testing the CPT theorem to extremely high precision.
