“This is an important result and a beautiful example of how science advances. We upgrade our instruments and we see nature in greater detail. Occasionally we see something we don't understand, and then progress is made. We cannot know whether this progress will be incremental or genuinely world-changing—that's science! LHCb is a major scientific success.”
