a) A K° meson (mass 497.61 MeV/c2) decays to a t, T pair with a mean lifetime of 0.89 x
10-10 s. Suppose the K° has a kinetic energy of 276 MeV when it decays, and that the two
A mesons emerge at equal angles to the original K° direction.
Calculate the kinetic energy of each T meson and the opening angle between them. The
mass of a 7 meson is 139.57 MeV/c2.
When a proton and an antiproton annihilate, the resulting energy can be used to create new particles. One possibility is the creation of electrically neutral particles called neutral pions. A neutral pion has a rest mass of 135 MeV/c2. How many neutral pions could be produced in the annihilation of a proton and an antiproton? Assume the proton and antiproton are moving very slowly as they collide.
Two ions containing a total of 98 protons, 59 electrons, & 126 neutrons are smashed together at the LHC (Large Hadron Collider). The aftermath of the collision contains neutrinos, neutrons, protons, & electrons. After the collision physicists detect 108 neutrinos, 28 neutrons, & 104 electrons. According to the Law of Conservaton of Charge, how many protons must also be present?
number of protons present after collision =
