The quark makeups of the proton and neutron are uudand,uddrespectively. What are the quark makeups of (a) the antiproton and (b) the antineutron?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The antiproton is written as.u¯u¯d¯

(b) The antineutron is written as.u¯d¯d¯

Step by step solution

01

(a) Quark makeups of the antiproton.

It is given that the quark makeups of the proton is.uud

The antiproton is composition of two up antiquarks and one down antiquark.

Hence, the antiproton is written as.u¯u¯d¯

02

 Step 2: (b) Quark makeups of the antineutron.

It is given that the quark makeups of the neutron is.udd

The antiproton is composition of one up antiquarks and two down antiquark.

Hence, the antineutron is written as.u¯d¯d¯

Three cosmologists have each plotted a line on the Hubble-like graph of Fig. 44-11. If we calculate the corresponding age of the universe from the three plots, rank the plots according to that age, greatest first.

The rest energy of many short-lived particles cannot be measured directly but must be inferred from the measured momenta and known rest energies of the decay products. Consider the ÒÏ0meson, which decays by the reactionÒÏ0→π++Ï€-. Calculate the rest energy of the ÒÏ0meson given that the oppositely directed momenta of the created pions each have a magnitude 358.3 MeV. See Table 44-4 for the rest energies of the pions.

There are baryons with spin .Their symbols and quantum numbers for charge and strangeness are as follows:


q S
q S
∆--10∑*0
0-1
∆000∑*++1-1
∆+
+10≡*0-1-2
∆+++20≡*00-2
∑*--1-1Ω--1-3

Make a charge–strangeness plot for these baryons, using the sloping coordinate system of Fig. 44-3. Compare your plot with this figure.

An object is 1.5×104 lyfromus and does not have any motion relative to us except for the motion due to the expansion of the universe. If the space between us and it expands according to Hubble’s law, with H=21.8 mms⋅ly,

(a) how much extra distance (meters) will be between us and the object by this time next year and

(b) what is the speed of the object away from us?

Does the proposed decay process

ө-→π-+n+K-+p

conserve (a) charge, (b) baryon number, (c) spin angular momentum, and (d) strangeness?
