... 12. Scientists now believe that protons and neutrons are made of even smaller particles known as quarks. ‘Up’ quarks have a charge of plus two-thirds and ‘down’ quarks have a charge of negative one-third. If both protons and neutrons are made up of three quarks each, what must be the combination of ...

... A New Type of Collider: +As far as we know, electrons (and positrons) are not composite particles, so an e+e- collider provides a well-defined initial state in which all energy is concentrated in two fundamental particles. However, electrons have relatively low mass, me, so the electric field E o ...

... Most WIMPs pass easily through the earth, as do most neutrinos. But there is a small probability of interacting with a nucleon, producing a recoil. Direct detection experiments have very sensitive detectors designed to discover these rare events. They are placed deep underground to shield from a fal ...

... Equilibrium - There are different types of equilibrium (eqm), such as chemical eqm. In physics we normally work with mechanical eqm. A system is in equilibrium if i) the total "FORCE" acting in any direction is zero, and ii) the total "MOMENT" about any point is zero. ...
