the scientist should categorize the particle as a "strange quark", which is a type of elementary particle with a charge of -1/3. The particle described in the text has a positive charge of 2/3, which is the charge of an anti-strange quark. However, an anti-strange quark always appears in pairs with a strange quark, so the particle in question is likely a strange quark that is paired with its antiparticle.
