You may assume the muon antineutrino is massless and has momentum p = E / c , justlike a photon.
Determine which of the following decays or reactions is not allowed and explain why. (a) p + p → p + π++Λ+-K0 (b) Λ → p + π0
You are working as an assistant for a physics professor. For an upcoming lecture, your professor asks you to prepare a presentation slide with the following two proposed reactions which might proceed via the strong interaction:(i) π- + p → K0 +Λ0(ii) π- + p → K0 + nOn the slide, the professor wishes for you to show the quark analysis of the reactions, and (a) identify which reaction is observed, and (b) explain why the other is not observed.
Determine whether or not strangeness is conserved in the following decays and reactions. (a) ^0 → p + π− (b) π− + p → ^0 + K0 (c) P- + p → 0 (d) π− + p → π− + Σ+ (e) Ξ− → ^0π−0 → p + π−
The Eº can decay to Aº without changing strangeness, so it decays by the electromagnetic interaction E° → A° + y. In contrast, the charged E+ decays to p or n by the weak interac- tion with characteristic lifetimes of 10-10 s. Why can't E+ decay to Aº by the strong inter- action in a much shorter time?
