That thing helps to understand particles and their formation. That decay follows the predictions of the Standard model and that is the path of the new era of physics. The kaon decay is one of the rarest things in history.  Mesons are unstable versions of hadrons. The most well-known stable versions of hadrons called baryons are protons and neutrons.  Kaon, or K-meson is one hadron. The mesons are

Unlike an ordinary metallic conductor, whose resistance decreases gradually as its temperature is lowered, even down to near absolute zero, a superconductor has a characteristic critical temperature below which the resistance drops abruptly to zero. An electric current through a loop of superconducting wire can persist indefinitely with no power source" (Wikipedia, Superconductivity) Theoretically, a superconducting electric circu
