In 1955 Oreste Piccioni was a staff member at Brookhaven National Laboratory. This paper reports on a collaboration between Pais and Piccioni that dealt with "bizarre manifestations of the mixing of Ko and Ko" specifically the fate of a freshly created Ko-beam. Their result was "a regeneration of K1 . . . manifested by the reappearance of the decay K1 2p. This prediction which has become known as the Pais-Piccioni effect was verified a few years later. . . Feyman has called these predictions 'one of the greatest achievements of theoretical physics. It is not based on an elegant hocus-pocus . . . yet the predictions are just as important as say the prediction of the positron.' It is certainly the best physics I have done in my whole life."

"In the summer of 1947 on board ship returning from Copenhagen to New York I had been pacing the deck reflecting on Powell's discovery of the muon and speculating about the possibility that just as the muon appeared to be a heavy brother of the electron there might well exist heavy partners of the proton and neutron - which had not yet been seen at that time. Now here was the ! That particle I was immediately convinced had to be related to the proton-neutron very much like the muon to the electron. These visions were a consequence of my work done in 1946-47 in Copenhagen in which each 'prewar particle' appeared as the lowest mass particle of a 'particle family'. . . I had been the co-creator of the word 'lepton' to denote a member of the electron-neutrino family. In 1953 I proposed to baptize the proton-neutron and its heavier brothers the was only the first of these to be discovered. . . with the collective name 'baryon' from the Greek ßa - heavy. That word like lepton is now in the Oxford English Dictionary where even the paper is quoted in which I first introduced the term." Pais A tale of two continents p. 268. Pais Inward bound p. 514.
