The NA32 experiment, conducted at CERN in the late 1980s, was designed to study the properties of particles produced in high-energy collisions involving accelerated protons and other particles. Specifically, this experiment focused on the production of heavy mesons, such as the D and B mesons, and was significant for enhancing our understanding of the Strong Force, part of the Standard Model of particle physics that describes how quarks and gluons interact.
