If all of the quarks combining to form a meson are in the ground state, what are the possible spins a
meson might have? Give an example particle (and describe its constituents) for each of your answers.
Please answer all three parts! 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…

The interactions between subatomic particles are mediated by the exchange of particles called "gauge bosons". O The strong interaction is mediated by the exchange of "gluons". Since the gluons have such a small mass, they can move very fast, and this is why the strong force has such a long range. O There are four fundamental interactions: gravity, the weak interaction, the electromagnetic and the strong interaction.arrow_forward

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.

- A magnetic field turns the velocity of a particle but does not change the speed, because the force is always perpendicular to the velocity. Particle accelerators (like CERN,) bubble chambers (to detect and characterize particles,) and mass spectrometers (to identify ions) all rely on this circular motion of charged particles in a magnetic field. In section 26.3, we learn that the radius of the circle made by a charged particle moving perpendicular to a magnetic field is T = mv qB (a) A particle is observed moving to the right when it enters a magnetic field. The magnetic field points into the page. When the particle enters the field, it moves in a clockwise circle. What is the sign of the charge? (b) Explain using physics language why the radius gets larger when the mass increases, and smaller when the charge or field increase.
