4 IB Assessment Statements Topic 13.2, Nuclear Physics Describe β + decay, including the existence of the neutrino State the radioactive decay law as an exponential function and define the decay constant Derive the relationship between decay constant and half-life.
5 IB Assessment Statements Topic 13.2, Nuclear Physics Outline methods for measuring the halflife of an isotope Solve problems involving radioactive half-life.
6 Objectives Solve problems of closest approach using the law of conservation of energy and appreciate that nuclei have well-defined radii Describe a mass spectrometer and its implications for isotope existence State theoretical arguments that have been used to postulate the existence of the neutrino
7 Objectives State the radioactive decay law, N A N e t dn dt ( N) e t State the meaning of half-life and decay constant and derive the relationship between them
8 Objectives Appreciate that the decay constant is the probability of decay per unit time Understand that the initial activity of a sample is, A N Obtain short and long half-lives from experimental data
9 Objectives Solve problems with activities and the radioactive decay law
10 Scattering Experiments and Distance of Closest Approach An alpha particle of charge q=+2e is fired head-on at a nucleus The particle s total energy is kinetic, E=E k
11 Scattering Experiments and Distance of Closest Approach The particle is repelled by the positive charge of the nucleus
12 Scattering Experiments and Distance of Closest Approach When the particle stops, all of its kinetic energy has been converted into potential energy E E E k k k Qq d Ze2e d 2Ze d 2
13 Scattering Experiments and Distance of Closest Approach When the particle stops, all of its kinetic energy has been converted into potential energy E K k 2Ze d 2 d k 2Ze E K 2
14 Scattering Experiments and Distance of Closest Approach As kinetic energy of the alpha particle increases, distance decreases until the nuclear radius is reached E K k 2Ze d 2 d k 2Ze E K 2
15 Scattering Experiments and Distance of Closest Approach Rutherford Scattering Closest Approach to Nucleus Nuclear Radius Relationship
16 Scattering Experiments and Distance of Closest Approach Further experiments have been able to refine the estimates for nuclear radii to be R 1.2xA 1 3 x1 15 m
17 Mass Spectrometer ee v E B evb Positive ions pass through a combination magnetic and electric field so that only ones with a certain velocity will pass through S 2
18 Mass Spectrometer F R R m evb mv evb mv eb R 2 eb v m v 2 R The positive ions then enter a third magnetic field which causes the ion to take a circular path, the radius of which is determined by its mass.
19 Mass Spectrometer Given the same velocity, particles with a greater mass will have greater kinetic energy and thus a larger radius of curvature Existence of isotopes was found using a mass spectrometer
20 Beta Decay and the Neutrino Decay of a neutron Decays into a proton, electron, and an antineutrino 1 1 n p e 1 1 v e This happens to free neutrons outside the nucleus because neutrons have greater mass than protons Half-life is about 11 minutes
21 Beta Decay and the Neutrino Decay of a proton Decays into a neutron with the emission of a positron (anti-particle of an electron) and a neutrino 1 1 p n e 1 1 v e Decay occurs inside the nucleus where binding energy makes up for the mass difference Not a split, but a disappearance and reformation
22 Beta Decay and the Neutrino Presence of neutrinos predicted because the mass of a neutron is greater than the sum of the mass of a proton and electron 1 1 n p e p n e 1 1 v e v e
23 Beta Decay and the Neutrino In other decays, this mass difference showed up in kinetic energy of the particles 1 1 n p e p n e 1 1 v e v e
24 Beta Decay and the Neutrino Absence of the kinetic energy led to experiments that uncovered the neutrino (little neutral one) in n p e p n e 1 1 v e v e
25 Beta Decay and the Neutrino Electron Capture A proton inside the nucleus captures an electron and turns into a neutron and neutrino 1 1 p e n 1 1 v e This is the process occurring in neutron stars Huge pressure inside the star drives electrons into protons, turning them into neutrons
26 Beta Decay and the Neutrino Examples of Beta Decay n1p 1ev e 1 pn 1eve 1 p 1env e
27 Nuclear Energy Levels The nucleus, like the atom, exists in discrete energy levels Main evidence is that alpha particles and gamma ray photons are emitted in discrete energy levels during decays In beta decays, the electrons have a continuous range of energies
28 Nuclear Energy Levels Nuclear energy levels of Mg Shown is a gamma decay (release of a photon) with energy MeV
29 Nuclear Energy Levels Two decays of plutonium into uranium with release of an alpha particle 242 Pu 238 U
30 Radioactive Decay Law The number of nuclei that will decay per second is proportional to the number of atoms present that have not yet decayed dn dt N λ is a constant known as the decay constant Represents the probability of decay per unit time
31 Radioactive Decay Law The number of undecayed nuclei N at any given time in relation to the original number of undecayed nuclei N is given by the equation, N N e t The decay rate is exponential
32 Radioactive Decay Law The derivation to the right gives the relationship between half-life and decay rate N N e t N N e 2 1 ln ln e 2 T T 1/ 2 1/ T 1/ 2
33 Radioactive Decay Law
34 Radioactive Decay Law The number of decays per second is called the activity, N A N e dn dt t A N e t The initial activity is A N
35 Radioactive Decay Law The decay constant represents the probability of decay per unit time dn dt dn N Ndt probability probability dt dn N dt

Alpha Decay Because the binding energy of the alpha particle is so large (28.3 MeV), it is often energetically favorable for a heavy nucleus to emit an alpha particle Nuclides with A>150 are unstable against
