The pions have opposite charges, as indicated, and the same mass, mπ = 140 MeV/c2. Suppose that a K0 at rest decays into two pions in a bubble chamber in which a magnetic field of 2.0 T is present (see Fig. P2.22). If the radius of curvature of the pions is 34.4 cm, find (a) the momenta and speeds of the pions and (b) the mass of the K0 meson.arrow_forward(a) What particle has the quark composition u-u-d?

Explain your answer. Sketch on separate graphs the d and d quark distributions of the neutron as a function of x, the fraction of the neutron's momentum carried by the struck quark. Include in each graph a comparison with the d and d quark distributions of the proton.arrow_forwardYou have entered a graduate program in particle physics and are learning about the use of symmetry. You begin by repeating the analysis that led to the prediction of the Ω- particle. Nine of the spin- 3/2 baryons are four ∆ particles, each with mass 1232 MeV/c2 , strangeness 0, and charges +2e, +e, 0, and -e; three Σ* particles, each with mass 1385 Me/c2 , strangeness -1, and charges +e, 0, and -e; and two Ξ* particles, each with mass 1530 MeV/c2 , strangeness -2, and charges 0 and -e. (a) Place these particles on a plot of S versus Q. Deduce the Q and S values of the tenth spin- 3/2 baryon, the Ω- particle, and place it on your diagram. Also label the particles with their masses. The mass of the Ω- is 1672 MeV/c2 ; is this value consistent with your diagram? (b) Deduce the three-quark combinations (of u, d, and s) that make up each of these ten particles.

- Accelerators such as the Triangle Universities Meson Facility (TRIUMF) in British Columbia produce secondary beams of pions by having an intense primary proton beam strike a target. Such “meson factories” have been used for many years to study the interaction of pions with nuclei and,hence, the strong nuclear force. One reaction that occurs isπ+ + p → Δ++ → π+ + p , where the Δ++ is a very short-lived particle. The graph shows the probability of this reaction as a function of energy. The width of the bump is the uncertainty in energy due to the short lifetime of the Δ++ .(a) Find this lifetime.(b) Verify from the quark composition of the particles that thisreaction annihilates and then re-creates a d quark and a d antiquark by writing the reaction and decay in terms ofquarks.(c) Draw a Feynman diagram of the production and decay ofthe Δ++ showing the individual quarks involved.arrow_forwardMore than 60 years ago, future Nobel laureate Sheldon Glashow predicted that if an antineutrino — the antimatter answer to the nearly massless neutrino — collided with an electron, it could produce a cascade of other particles. The Glashow resonance phenomenon is hard to detect, in large part because the antineutrino needs about 1,000 times more energy than what's produced in the most powerful colliders on Earth. Let's compare this event to an ordinary baseball with a mass of 146 g. Please use three significant figures in your calculations. 1.What is the threshold antineutrino energy for the Glashow resonance in peta electronvolts (PeV)? 2.What is this threshold energy in units of joules? 3.Now consider a baseball with the same kinetic energy as that of the Glashow resonance. What speed in m/s would correspond to this energy? 4.What is this rate in units of inches/second? please help!!arrow_forwardWhich of the following reactions cannot occur?
