Thank you. Stanford has a linear particle accelerator (SLAC) which is 3 km long that produces electrons with a total energy of 50 GeV. These electrons lead exciting (albeit brief) lives, zooming along the accelerator before slamming into a target to produce other high-energy particles. a. Consider the viewpoint of one of the electrons. From the electron’s point of view, how long is the accelerator? Note that it is possible to answer this question without calculating the electron’s velocity. b. Let’s figure out how fast the electrons are traveling. Start by solving for β = u/c in terms of 1/γ following the trick we used in class. Use the binomial expansion if that is helpful. At what speed does a 50 GeV electron travel? c. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN presently accelerates protons to a total energy of 6.5 TeV. Imagine a pulse of light, a 50 GeV electron, and a 6.5 TeV proton race each other along a 3 km distance. The light pulse will surely win…arrow_forward
- In the realm of quantum mechanics, explore the implications of the measurement problem on the interpretation of wave function collapse and the nature of reality. Discuss how various interpretations such as the Copenhagen interpretation, many - worlds interpretation, and pilot-wave theory attempt to resolve this fundamental paradox. Furthermore, analyze the experimental evidence and theoretical frameworks that support or challenge each interpretation, highlighting the philosophical and conceptual consequences of each approach on our understanding of the quantum world.arrow_forwardEdwin Hubble observed that the light from very distant galaxies was redshifted and that the farther away a galaxy was, the greater its redshift. What does this say about very distant galaxies? When Hubble first estimated the Hubble constant, galaxy distances were still very uncertain, and he got a value for H of about 600 km/s per Mpc. What would this have implied about the age of the universe? What problems would this have presented for cosmologists?arrow_forwardquestion no 3arrow_forward
