Work out the highest mass particle (X) that can be formed in a collision of: 1) a proton beam on a proton (hydrogen) target and of 2) two proton beams colliding head-on. Assume that in the collision the only particle produced is the particle X. Assume also that protons in the target are at rest and protons in the beams have energy Eb and momentum (0,0,±PB). The mass of the proton may be taken to be very small compared to Eb in the calculations.

3. (10 pts) High energy particle accelerators convert part of the energy of colliding particles into the masses of particles produced in the collisions. Consider a collision of two protons that produces two charged kaons. The mass of the proton is mp- 938.3 MeV/c2, and the mass of each kaon is mK 493.7 MeV/c2. The reaction is a) The total energy (kinetic energy and rest energy) and total momentum is conserved. Suppose one of the protons is at rest in...

You are at the controls of a particle accelerator, sending beam of 3.90 x 10^7 m/s protons (mass m) at a gas target of an unknown element. Your detector tells you that some protons bounce straight back after a collision with one of the nuclei of the unknown element. All such protons rebound with a speed of 3.60 x 10^7 m/s. Assume that the initial speed of the target nucleus is negligible and that the collision is elastic. (a) Find...

An alpha particle (a helium nucleus, containing 2 protons and 2 neutrons) starts out with kinetic energy of 10.3 MeV (10.3 times 10^6 EV), and heads in the +x direction straight toward a gold nucleus (containing 79 protons and 118 neutrons). The particles are initially far apart, and the gold nucleus is initially at rest. Answer the following questions about the collision. What is the initial momentum...

I would appreciate an answer to part two!
In an experiment two beams of protons with the same energy are fired at each other. Particle detectors surround the interaction point. One unusual event is recorded which contains one electron and two muons. It is hypothesized that these could arise from the decay of a hitherto unknown particle, the 'X'. The energy and momentum...

Problem 10.23 An alpha particle (a helium nucleus, containing 2 protons and 2 neutrons) starts out with kinetic energy of 9.9 MeV (9.9 x 100 eV), and heads in the +x direction straight toward a gold nucleus (containing 79 protons and 118 neutrons). The particles are initially far apart, and the gold nucleus is initially at rest. Answer the following questions about the collision. What is the initial momentum of the alpha particle?

1) Consider an accelerator that collides beams of electrons and protons. The beams actually consist of bunches of particles, that are traveling essentially at the speed of light. For both the electron and proton beams, the bunche:s are 2 cm long (in the direction of motion) and they are circulating in rings of 300 m circumference. Each ring contains six bunches of protons (or electrons). Each bunch contains 1013 particles. Assume that the particles in the bunches are distributed uniformly...

A nucleus whose mass is 3.730032 x 10-25 kg undergoes spontaneous "alpha" decay. The original nucleus disappears and there appear two new particles: a He-4 nucleus of mass 6.640678x10-27 kg (an "alpha particle" consisting of two protons and two neutrons) and a new nucleus of mass 3.663533 x 10-25 kg (note that the new nucleus has less mass than the original nucleus, and it has two fewer protons and two fewer neutrons). In these calculations, it is very important to...

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
