The ‘Real’ World of Particles E. Wigner: “A particle is an irreducible representation of the inhomogeneous Lorentz group” Spin=0,1/2,1,3/2 … Mass>0 E.g. in Steven Weinberg, The Quantum Theory of Fields, Vol1

The ‘Real’ World of Particles W. Riegler: “…a particle is an object that interacts with your detector such that you can follow it’s track, it interacts also in your readout electronics and will break it after some time, and if you a silly enough to stand in an intense particle beam for some time you will be dead …” Are particles “real” ? are they in principle “invisible” ? … Looking at your hand by scattering light off it is the same thing as looking at the nucleons by scattering alpha particles (or electrons) off it. )* the content of this slide represents only the personal view of the lecturer, and must not be quoted as an official point of view of the particle physics community’

Two secondary vertices with characteristic decay particles giving invariant masses of known particles. Bubble chamber like – a single event tells what is happening. Negligible background. W. Riegler/CERN

ALEPH Higgs Candidate Undistinguishable background exists. Only statistical excess gives signature. W. Riegler/CERN

Cosmic Shower of Muons W. Riegler/CERN

Higgs Boson at CMS Particle seen as an excess of two photon events above the irreducible background. W. Riegler/CERN

Conclusion: Only a few of the numerous known particles have lifetimes that are long enough to leave tracks in a detector. Most of the particles are measured though the decay products and their kinematic relations (invariant mass). Most particles are only seen as an excess over an irreducible background. Some short lived particles (b,c –particles) reach lifetimes in the laboratory system that are sufficient to leave short tracks before decaying  identification by measurement of short tracks. In addition to this, detectors are built to measure the 8 particles Their difference in mass, charge and interaction is the key to their identification. W. Riegler/CERN
