Question 1
Appeared in Year: 2011 (IFS)
Describe in Detail Subjective▾
What are quarks? Give any four properties. Give quark composition of the following particles:
Edit
Explanation
- Quark is one of the fundamental particles in physics. From the combination of these quarks, hadrons are formed, like proton and neutrons are formed by the quarks.
- The anti – particle of a quark is the anti – quark. Quark and anti – quark are only two fundamental particles, which interact through all four fundamental forces of physics: Gravitational,…

Question 2
Appeared in Year: 2002
Describe in Detail Subjective▾
Distinguish between Hadrons and leptons. (10 Marks)
EditExplanation
- Elementary particles fall into two classes, leptons and hadrons, depending on whether they respond to the strong interaction (hadrons) or do not (leptons) .
- The simplest particles are the leptons, which seen to be truly elementary with no hint of internal structures or ever of extension in space. Leptons are effected by the electromagnetic (if charg…

Question 3
Appeared in Year: 2004
Describe in Detail Subjective▾
A meson of rest mass comes to rest and disintegrates to a muon of rest mass and a neutrino of zero rest mass. Show that the kinetic energy of motion of the muon is
EditExplanation
The decay equation is . Conserving energy gives
The meson (also called the pion) is a subatomic particle responsible for the strong nuclear force between protons and neutrons. It…

Question 4
Appeared in Year: 2004
Describe in Detail Subjective▾
What is the difference between neutrino and antineutrino? How is helicity of neutrino determined?
EditExplanation
The distinction between the neutrino and the antineutrino is a particularly interesting one. The spin of the neutrino is opposite in direction to the direction of its motion, the neutrino spins counterclockwise. The spin of the antineutrino, on the other hand, is in the same direction as its direction of motion, view…

What are the term symbols of 2 equivalent electrons? Write down the term symbols in ascending order of energies (Marks 15)
EditExplanation
Let us find the terms from Breit՚s scheme. In this scheme we write in a table all the possible values of which can be formed by the combination of of the two electrons. For this we write
