  1. Particlesenergy states Particles decay, transform, change, behave like waves, emit energy and absorb energy as if they are energy states. Particles include electrons, protons, neutrons, pions, kaons, J, D, Upsilon, sigma, rho, etc., some have strange names. The study of particles is called particle physics or high-energy physics. Particle studies proposed a standard model with a few fundamental components for all matter. Particles interact with via a force, and each force has a carrier. Fynman diagrams neatly represent these interactions. See particleadventure.org/particleadventure/other/othersites.html for more info Particles

  2. Particlesparticles and antiparticles Antiparticles of electrons, positrons, have been introduced in the discussion of beta decay. Theory about particles and antiparticles is simple and symmetric.Particles and antiparticles have the same mass, but opposite electric charge, and magnetic moment. Some questions regarding particles: Do all particles have corresponding antiparticles as do electrons? Do neutral particles such as neutrons have antiparticles? Particles

  3. The Particle-antiparticle Concept • Dirac's energy equation from Einstein's equation • E= m c2 = m0c2 (1 - (v/c)2)-1 • E 2 = (m c2)2 • = m02c 4/(1-(v/c)2) • From this, he has • (m c2)2 - m 2 v2c 2 = m02c 4 • Thus, (p = m v) • E 2 = p 2c 2 + (m0c 2)2 • Therefore • E + = [p 2c 2 + (m0c 2)2]1/2 • E - = -[p 2c 2 + (m0c 2)2 ]1/2 Ignore the formula box if you find the equations hard to follow. Dirac combined theory of relativity with quantum mechanics to get a theory, that predicted a new state for an electron whose energy becomes more negative as the electron increases speed. He worked out the wave functions for such a positive electron, and called itantiparticle. Particles

  4. The Particle-antiparticle Concept (continue) In a vacuum, all negative-energy states are occupied, and positive energy states are empty. Fully occupied or unoccupied states are unobservable A pair of particle and antiparticle Singly occupied states are observable Particles

  6. Discovery of Antiparticle C.D. Anderson observed tracks of positive electrons in his cloud chamber in 1932, and called them positrons, antiparticle suggested by Dirac. Particles

  7. Generalizing the Antiparticle Concept In particle physics, every particle has a corresponding antiparticle.  A particle and its antiparticle have identical mass and spin. A particle and its antiparticle have opposite signs for nearly all non-zero quantities such as: electric charge, (abstract) flavor, electron number, muon number, tau number, and baryon number. We call commonly observed particles such as protons, neutrons, and electrons "matter" particles, and their antiparticles are “antimatter” Matter: anything built from quarks, negatively charged leptons and left-hand neutrinos Antimatter: anything built from antiquarks, positively charged leptons and right-handed neutrinos. Particles

  8. annihilation and pair production At the ends of positron tracks, two tracks appeared due to gamma photons in annihilation. A year later, electron-positron pair productions were observed at track ends of high-energy photons. Particles

  9. Generalized annihilation and pair production Whenever sufficient energy is available to provide the mass(energy), a particle and its antiparticle can be produced together, obeying the conservation laws in all processes. When a particle collides with its antiparticle, they may annihilate – they disappear and combine into a boson (a carrier particle of interaction forces). The boson may decay (change to) into other particles and antiparticles. Particles

  10. The discovery of protons and antiprotons The discovery was made by observing a bubble chamber photo of antiproton annihilation. Antiproton: same mass as proton, 932 MeV.present in accelerators and cosmic raysannihilated with proton to give a set of starburst of particles (pions). p + p 4 p– + 4 p+ Particles

  11. The actual bubble chamber photograph of an antiproton (entering from the bottom of the picture) colliding with a proton at rest and annihilating. Eight (8) pions were produced in this process. One decayed into a m+ and a n. The positive and negative pions curve different ways in the magnetic field. Particles

  12. The Discovery of Antineutrons This bubble-chamber picture, taken in 1958, demonstrated the existence of the antineutron, n. At the point marked by the arrow, an incoming antiproton beam particle undergoes the `charge exchange' reaction p + p --> n + nThe kinetic energy of the interacting antiproton is estimated to be ~50 MeV. The n formed in the process travels an actual distance of 9.5 cm before annihilating in a characteristic `annihilation star‘. n + p --> 3 p+ + 2 p- The energy released is > 1500 MeV. See L. E. Agnew et al, Phys. Rev., 110 (1958) 994 Particles

  13. Particles and the standard model Two types of fundamental particles are leptons and quarks. Charged particles interact via gauge bosons, and quarks via strong-force carriers called gluons. Particles

  14. The Standard Model Particles are grouped into families – leptons and quarks. Leptons Quarks Electrone-neutrino UpDown These are found inside 3rd generation matters CharmStrange muonm -neutrino taut -neutrino Top Bottom The Standard Model (a theory?) is the name given to the current theory of fundamental particles and how they interact. Particles

  15. Crossing Symmetry in Particle Interactions In a particle interaction A + B  C + Denergy (and mass), momentum, baryon number, lepton number, and charge are conserved. The crossing symmetry suggests that any of the particles can be replaced by its antiparticle on the other side of the interaction. A  B + C + D (X is antiparticle of X) A + C B + DC D + A + BC + D A + B The crossing symmetry allows us to see different phenomena as the same interaction. Particles

  16. quarks as fundamental particles The study of particles, their relationships and classification led to the idea that some fundamental particles smaller than protons and neutron exist. A mathematical theories support their existence. The fundamental particles are called quarks. Particles

  17. mesons and baryons Mesons and baryons are collectively called hadrons. Mesons consist of a quark and antiquark. Baryons consist of three quarks. Relations of some mesons and baryons are shown here. Particles

  21. four forces and force carriers Particles interact with each other via a force. Particles responsible for the delivery of force are force carriers. Feynman invented a method to represent the interaction. Gravity, electromagnetic (e & m), weak, and strong are the 4 forces, each has its type of carriers. Particles
