The primary decay mode for the negative pion is π− → μ− + ν-μ .                  (a) What is the energy release in MeV in this decay? (b) Using conservation of momentum, how much energy does each of the decay products receive, given the π− is at rest when it decays? You may assume the muon antineutrino is massless and has momentum p = E / c , justlike a photon.

AZ boson (m(Z) = 91.19 GeV) is produced in a hadron collider. We measure its decays into a μ- and a μ+. Use the values from the lecture for: gz = 0.74, sin20w = 0.2315 and h = 6.6 × 10-16 eV. (a) Calculate the decay rate into μ+μ¯ pairs in GeV (b) Calculate the branching fraction into μμ-pairs, assuming an approximate total Z decay rate of Iz≈ 2.5 GeV (c) Calculate the life time of the Z boson in units of seconds using the information provided in this question.
