Basics for Nuclear Particle Physics
Before starting…
2
What are fundamental particles?
Elementary particles Providing the mass 6 leptons (light ones) 6 quarks Gauge particles Mediator of forces 4 particles (forces)
3
Twelve Elementary Particles
Leptons Quarks
4
Gauge Particles (mediator of forces)
5
Other Classification
6
Comparison of the Force Scale
Gravitational force 10-40 Weak force 10-7 Electromagnetic force 10-3 Strong force 1
7
Grand Unification Scheme
To explain forces in terms of exchanging particles Each coupling constant (related to a specific force) converges to one value.
8
Unit Systems SI (MKS) units Atomic units Nuclear units
Meters, kilograms, seconds, etc. (macroscopic) Atomic units me =1, a.u., etc. (electron base) Nuclear units fermis, MeV, etc (nucleon base)
9
Properties of Nuclear Unit System
1 eV = 10-19 J The energy which one electron can obtain from 1 volt potential difference The key factor of this unit system c = [MeVfermi] Example: electric potential energy
10
Feynman Diagrams But the diagram does not display its coordinate.
