That was when the paradigm of light as wave motion was replaced by the model of light as photons having both wave and particle properties. No one can yet make de ...

Chapter 30 – Particle Physics
... The weak interaction allows one flavor of quark to change into any other flavor of quark. In beta-‐‑minus decay, a neutron changes into a proton. This occurs when a down quark changes into an up quark by emiTing a W-‐‑, which then decays into an el ...

Inertial mass and the quantum vacuum fields
... possible to extend this to the strong- and weak-interaction vacuum fields. Newton's second law, f = ma, may then cease to be fundamental as it might be derived from the vacuum fields plus the third law. Newton's third law of action and reaction would be axiomatic; Newton's second law would not. For ...

Return of the Ether: Conjecture That Can Explain
... example, first consider the duality field of an electron, which is a “particle” but at the same time is associated with a “wave.” It usually turns out that the electron’s “wave” is an X ray! However, it is an X ray in frequency only. Constructive and destructive interference patterns show that it is ...

The Ideal Gas on the Canonical Ensemble
... molecules being in different states. We can now see the problem. When the particles are in different state, we have counted each state twice. The state with one molecule in state 1, the other in state 2, could be written as s = 1, t = 2 or as s = 2, t = 1. Now except for the fact that we’ve labelled ...

Spin light of electron in dense matter
... In a series of our papers [3–9] we have developed a rather powerful method for investigation of different phenomena that can appear when neutrinos and electrons move in background matter. The method discussed is based on the use of the modified Dirac equations for particles wave functions, in which ...

Accelerators - UC Davis Physics
... Accelerators for particle physics can be classified into two main types: •Fixed Target: Shoot a particle at a fixed target A charged particle such as an electron or a proton is accelerated by an electric field and collides with a target, Fermilab video of fixed targets which can be a solid, liquid, ...
