Revision notes on 11.2.2 Quark Composition for the CIE A Level Physics syllabus, written by the Physics experts at Save My Exams.
Revision notes on Properties of Quarks for the CIE A Level Physics syllabus, written by the Physics experts at Save My Exams.
These smaller particles were named quarks and are thought to be fundamental particles (not made of anything smaller). There are six different quarks and each one has its own antiparticle. We need to know about the three below as we will be looking at how larger particles are made from different combinations of quarks and antiquarks.
Quarks are a type of fundamental particle which combine to form hadrons such as protons and neutrons. There are six flavours (types) of quark: up, down, top, bottom, strange, and
Symmetries play a central role in particle physics; one aim of particle physics is to discover the fundamental symmetries of our universe. In this handout will apply the idea of symmetry to the quark model with the aim of : Deriving hadron wave-functions Providing an introduction to the more abstract ideas of.
3.2.1.6 - Quarks and antiquarks As mentioned above, quarks are fundamental particles which make up hadrons. Each type of quark has different properties, and you need to be aware of 3 types of quark and antiquark. For the below table, the properties of the respective antiquarks have the opposite sign: Type of quark Charge Baryon number Strangeness
Unit 1: Particle Physics. ? Created by: Anabuddy. Created on: 10-09-12 22:14. Fullscreen. All known matter particles are made of quarks and leptons, and they interact by exchanging force-carrier particles (exchange particles) Quarks have a fractional electric charge and a colour charge. They are fundamental particles. Annihilation. p + p-bar → 2γ.
