    Particulate Matter Essay

    yet to understand why there was a surplus of matter during the big bang and not all matter was annihilated along with antimatter. A quark is a fundamental constituent of matter and they are the building blocks of hadrons. Theories suggest that there are 6 different levels of quarks and in 1995 physicists at Fermilab announced the discovery of the top quark. They were able to see that this quark was heavier than a gold atom but much smaller than a proton. They did this using the world’s highest particle accelerator, the Tevatron. On February 24th 1999, physicists at Fermilab announced results establishing the existence of direct CP violation in the decay of kaon (particles containing a strange quark), which is a significant step in understanding why there was a surplus of matter during the big-bang. On July 21st 2000, Fermilab then announced the first direct evidence to the proof of the tau neutrino, the third kind of neutrino known in particle physics. Nobody had previously observed the interaction of the tau neutrino with matter because they are barely massless and do not Interact with any surrounding matter. The massive developments in technology have allowed physicists to be able to closely study antimatter and particulate matter in much detail, leading to a stronger understanding of the universe. Fermilab continue to research different quarks and study the universe to develop a further understanding and discover things that human imagination cannot think. Cosmic Rays…

    The Truth Janie never gives up on what she believes in and her family stands by her through it all and supports her with love. Janie did not let what anyone say get in the way of what she thought was right. Love and determination is apparent three times in the book The Face on The Milk Carton. The first time determination is illustrated is when Janie kept searching for answers and did not give up on finding out her past or else she would have never found out the truth. The second time…

    I believe that “The Cosmological Argument” for God is still quite valid, my reasons for defending this argument have been produced after a great deal of reflection on the matter, I have concluded that the argument is still quite useful. To best describe the argument, it is the conclusion that “nothing comes from nothing” as was stated by St. Aquinas, in other words God must exist because if there was nothing then we needed something to “call it into existence” so to speak. This coincides…

    The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a particle accelerator made of superconducting magnets, built on September 10th, 2008. It can be found between the border of France and Switzerland, near Geneva, 100 meters underground. The Large Hadron Collider is a machine that was built with the ability to accelerate subatomic particles to very high speeds, which requires chilling the magnets to ‑271.3°C. This is done through the use of electric or electromagnetic fields, two hadrons are sent through the…

    When Scream Factory announced they were releasing Jack's Back on Blu-ray, I never even heard of the flick before. After reading up on it and finding out it starred James Spader and had to do with a modern-day Jack the Ripper, my interests in checking it out with through the roof. After finally getting my hands on it and sitting down to watch it, I came out liking it quite a bit, but was surprised to find out that the actually Jack the Ripper material was actually just the catalyst for the…

    Tetraquark Research Paper

    • 596 Words
    • 3 Pages

    A group of related, fascinating particles, each made up of four quarks, has been found. The finding could hold pieces of information about the advancement of the universe, the analysts said. The four freshly discovered tetraquarks, now called X(4140), X(4274), X(4500) and X(4700), each are made out of two quarks and two antiquarks (the antimatter accomplices of quarks). However each of the freshly discovered particles has an alternate mass and distinctive subatomic properties. They are viewed…

    arranged on the periodic table. By count of their valence electrons on their outer orbital, and also by which orbital the valence electrons are located. You can see this by seeing that the valence electrons are the only consistent variable in the groups rather than their Atomic Number, tells you the number of protons in the atom, and the Mass Number which is the mass of the atom by calculating how many protons and neutrons are in the atom. Until recently we also believed that protons and…

    (From Timeline) It also helped to discover small cells like the corpuscle. The corpuscle is a very small particle that is unattached in a cell. It also enabled other things to be discovered, such as a positron. A positron has the same atomic mass as an electron, but with a positive charge. Quarks and leptons are things that build mater. A strange quark is a quark with a collision that lasted ten times longer than expected. A top quark is the heaviest of all the quarks, therefore has the…
