Why does antimatter anihilate matter and Would a positron anihilate a muon or a quark?
A positron is the antiparticle of an electron; in other words, it is an alternate name for the "anti-electron". Therefore, a positron would anihilate with an electron. I am not sure about the "why".
Fundamental particle responsible for keeping the nucleus together is muon or meson?
It is meson. Hideki Yukawa named it mesotron which was later corrected to meson. Muon was the first particle that had the predicted mass of a meson. It was discovered by Carl David Anderson. It was later conclude that it was not the right particle.
Why was it so difficult for scienitist to find the sixth quark?
Because they needed to produce a collision with an energy around 200 GeV, the top quark's rest mass, to pop it into existence. There are currently only two accelerators in the world that can do this, the LHC at CERN and the Tevatron at Fermilab. As a point of reference, a mass of 200 GeV/c2 is about 200 times more massive than a proton.
Is the mass of Neptune greater or less than earths mass?
greater
How can a neutrino or charm quark have a mass of less than zero?
For now, no particle has a mass less than zero. The Electron Neutrino for example has a mass of 0.0000079 eV (Or something like that). And the Charm quark has a mass of 1.29 GeV. Maybe you mistook it with spin or charge?
What is the quark composition of a muon?
A muon does not have a quark composition as it is a type of elementary particle, not a composite particle made up of quarks. Muons are classified as leptons, which are fundamental particles that do not experience the strong nuclear force and are not composed of quarks.
What are examples of subatomic particle?
Examples of subatomic particles include electrons, protons, and neutrons. Electrons have a negative charge, protons have a positive charge, and neutrons have no charge. These particles are the building blocks of atoms.
Do muon neutrino posses mass?
unknown at this time
Which more mass a- proton or electron?
A Proton is made up of Subatomic Particles, these include Quarks and Leptons. Within a Proton are two Up quarks and one Down quark. An Up quark has a mass of 2.4 MeV/c2, whilst a Down quark has a mass of 4.8 MeV/c2. An Electron is a type of Lepton, so we can not break it down any further. An Electron has very little mass 0.511 (MeV/c2). So using the information provided we can safely say that a Protons mass is greater than an Electrons mass. This should answer the Question.
What are the names of 16 discovered fundamental particles in nature?
Fundamental particles include: 1. photon 2. electron 3. positron 4. proton 5. anti-proton 6. neutron 7. anti-neutron 8. neutrino 9. anti-neutrino 10. Higgs particle 11. muon 12. pion 13. top quark 14. bottom quark 15. up quark 16. down quark 17. strange quark 18. charm quark
What is an antibottom quark?
An antibottom quark (or b-bar quark) is the antiparticle of a bottom quark. It has the same mass as a bottom quark but opposite electric charge and other quantum numbers. When a bottom quark meets an antibottom quark, they can annihilate each other and produce energy.
What is the muon's mass?
Muons decay by various methods, primarily, due to the weak interaction, into an electron and two neutrinos. The mass of the muon is 105.7 MeV/c2, with the mass of the electron being 0.511 MeV/c2, and the mass of the neutrino is less than 2.2 eV/c2. As a result, the loss of mass from muon decay, which is carried away as energy, is around 105.2 MeV/c2.
What is a charm quark?
A charm quark is an elementary particle with an electrical charge of +2⁄3 e. It's a second generation up-type quark and has a mass of about 1.5 GeV/c2.
Are electrons much smaller than protons and neutrons?
Yes, electrons are much smaller than protons and neutrons. Electrons are fundamental particles with a much smaller mass compared to protons and neutrons which are made up of quarks. The mass of an electron is approximately 1/1836 times the mass of a proton or neutron.
Why does antimatter anihilate matter and Would a positron anihilate a muon or a quark?
A positron is the antiparticle of an electron; in other words, it is an alternate name for the "anti-electron". Therefore, a positron would anihilate with an electron. I am not sure about the "why".
What atomic particles always carry a negative charge?
The electron, muon and tau; the down quark, the strange quark, the bottom quark; and the W boson.
What quark is the 6th quark also known as?
The six quark flavors are up, down, strange, charmed, bottom, and top. The top quark was the last to be created in an accelerator since its mass was so great; after a nearly 20 year search it finally was announced by Fermilab.
