The particle has potential energy V(x) and its relativistic Lagrangian is given by where mo is the rest mass of the particle and c is the speed of light (a) Writing qr and denoting by p its associated canonical momenta, show that the Hamiltonian is given by (show it from first principles rather than using the energy mzc2 6 marks (b) Write...
5.Two relativistic particles of mass m crash into each other, fusing to form a particle of mass M, at rest in the lab, with no other particles emitted. Assuming that each mass m particle had (lab frame magnitude) momentum p prior to the collision, evaluate M in terms of m and p. Was momentum conserved in the fusion event?
Two particles approach each other with equal and opposite speed, v. The mass of one particle is m, and the mass of the other particle is nm, where n is just a unitless number. Snapshots of the system before, during, and after the elastic collision are shown.

(d) A particle of mass m is moving at a speed u and hits an identical particle that is siting at rest. What are their four-momenta in the center of mass frame (e) In the center of mass frame, the collision of the two particles in part (d) causes the particles to fuse and create a single particle with mass M »m (i.e. the two particle turn into one, the opposite of a decay) that is completely at rest in...
Problem (3) A particle of mass M is at rest in the laboratory when it decays into three identical particles, each of mass m. Two of the particles, labeled #1 and #2, have velocity magnitudes and perpendicular directions as shown, with e representing the speed of light.

Why do scientists need particle accelerators to discover new particles and to study the properties of known particles? charge greater than less Particle accelerators allow scientists to accelerate subatomic particles to very high speeds( the speed of light). At these speeds, collisions between the accelerated particles and particles in a stationary target have sufficient energy to produce new particles and/or known particles via energy conversion greater near For example, the mediators of the weak nuclear interaction have very large rest...
Two dimensions. In Figure 13-34, three point particles are fixed in place in an xy plane. Particle A has mass mA = 3 g, particle B has mass 2.00mA, and particle C has mass 3.00mA. A fourth particle D, with mass 4.00mA, is to be placed near the other three particles.
