Just read LHCb discovers matter-antimatter asymmetry in charm quarks (published 3/21/2019, Source 1; here is the underlying preprint research paper Observation of CP violation in charm decays (Source 2) published 3/21/2019).
This could, if confirmed, be a major breakthrough in physics and in our understanding of the universe! Are finally coming a little closer to explain the riddle that matter trumped over antimatter? It may result in rewriting theories and models!
“This is the first observation of CP [charge parity] violation in the decay of charm hadrons.”
If you are curious, here are most of the key terms associated with the research paper. They are really charming: “electroweak interaction ; flavor physics ; charm physics”. You have to kind of admire the poetry of physics!
