When a charged particle is accelerated, it emits light known as synchrotron radiation. This radiation can be used to probe the structure of materials and biological molecules.
Industry:Physics
The strength of an interaction involving three particles. In the case where all three particles are identical, it is known as the trilinear self-coupling.
Industry:Physics
In the world of quantum mechanics, there is an intrinsic uncertainty in studying the position and the momentum of a particle at the same time. This means studying physics at small distances, where an accurate determination of the position is needed, requires high momentum and hence high energy.
Industry:Physics
A veto detector is used for eliminating possible false signals in an experiment. When a false signal has a notable feature, a veto detector can be built to look for that feature. In this way, when the veto detector registers a signal, the data associated with that signal can be flagged, and removed from the subsequent analysis.
Industry:Physics
This force is carried by heavy particles known as the W-boson and the Z-boson. The most common manifestation of this force is beta decay, in which a neutron in a nucleus is transformed into a proton, by emitting an electron and a neutrino.
Industry:Physics
A very weak interaction that is independent of the electric charge of a particle. Particles can exchange energy through this mechanism, but other characteristics of the particles remain unchanged. This force is mediated by the Z-boson.
Industry:Physics
Il termine per una particella con spin semi-intero. Gli esempi includono i quark e i leptoni del modello Standard.
Industry:Physics
Particelle esotiche prodotte presso gli acceleratori sono spesso molto breve e possono trasformare in prodotti più leggeri, meno esotici, come elettroni e fotoni. Questo processo di trasformazione è conosciuto come decadimento.
