PA2260___Relativity_Quantum_and_Particles Flashcards
The 6 Flavors of Quarks:
- Up
- Down
- Charmed
- Strange
- Top
- Bottom
T or F:
Leptons are fundamental Particles
True
Mesons Composition:
A Quark and an Anti-Quark
Neutron Quark Composition:
udd
Baryon Composition:
Three Quarks
Proton Quark Composition:
uud
Briefly state how quarks combine to form baryons, anti-baryons, and mesons.
Quarks combine to form baryons, anti-baryons, and mesons through the strong nuclear force, which is mediated by particles called gluons.
- Baryon = QQQ
- Meson = Q(-Q)
Length Contraction Derivation:
(Using the substitution for time dilation equation)
Lorentz Factor
Time dilation
Anti-Baryon Composition
Anti-Quark, Anti-Quark, Anti-Quark
