Visualizing the Mass and Width Spectrum of Unstable Particles
Several graphical representations of the mass and width spectrum of unstable subatomic particles are presented. Such plots are useful tools for introducing students to the particle zoo and provide students an alternate way to organize conceptually what can seem like an overwhelming amount of data. In particular, such graphs highlight phenomenological features of unstable particles characteristi...
متن کاملWidth and partial widths of unstable particles.
In the gauge theory context, a definition of branching ratios and partial widths of unstable particles is proposed that satisfies the basic principles of additivity and gauge independence. A simpler definition, similar to the conventional one, is examined in the Z0-boson case. In order to establish contact with experiment, we show that it leads to a peak cross section that justifies the express...
متن کاملMass and Lifetime of Unstable Particles
The relationship between the properties of the propagator of an unstable particle and the observation of mass and lifetime is considered. For illustrative purposes a model of a scalar (or pseudoscalar) particle (8) weakly coupled to two pions is treated. The propagator is shown to have a simple pole on the second (unphysical) Riernann sheet and it is assumed, as suggested by Peierls, that this ...
متن کاملPole Mass, Width, and Propagators of Unstable Fermions
The concepts of pole mass and width are extended to unstable fermions in the general framework of parity-nonconserving gauge theories, such as the Standard Model. In contrast with the conventional on-shell definitions, these concepts are gauge independent and avoid severe unphysical singularities, properties of great importance since most fundamental fermions in nature are unstable particles. G...
متن کاملextraction and characterization of allium irancum plant extract and its application in the green synthesis of silver nano particles and oxidation of thiocarbony1 compounds
سنتز سبز نانوذرات فلزی (nps) درسالهای اخیر توجه بسیارزیادی را به خود جلب کرده است. زیرا این پروتوکل کم هزینه وسازگار با محیط زیست از روش های استاندارد سنتز. در این پایان نامه ما گزارش میکنیم یک روش ساده و سازگار با محیط زیست برای سنتز نانوذرات نقره با استفاده از محلول آبی عصاره گیاه allium iranicum به عنوان یک عامل کاهش دهنده ی طبیعی. نانو ذرات نقره مشخص شد با استفاده از تکنیک های uv-visible، x...
