The TRIUMF (read: triumph) laboratory in Canada has explored a way of treating cancer by bombardment with these particles, and Cecil Powel received a Nobel Prize in Physics for developing the technology that led to its discovery.

A pseudoscalar like all the other particles of its type, its neutral version decays by the Dalitz decay into an electron-positron pair, and can also decay into two photons. Although a second decay branch allows their charged varieties to decay into electrons and neutrinos, they decay primarily into muons and their associated neutrinos. With a mass of about 140 MeV and consisting combinations of up and down quarks and their antiquarks, FTP, identify this lightest meson, predicted by Yukawa as carriers of the strong force.
