1 Hunting for elusive particles at LHC: Start of Run II Andrei Gritsan Johns Hopkins University July 25, 216 Johns Hopkins University QuarkNet Physics Workshop

2 Reaching Highest Energy mc 2 = E Andrei Gritsan, JHU LXXXV July 3, 214

3 Particles Resonances Bumps We often see particles as resonances most particles are not stable reconstruct from their decay products Andrei Gritsan, JHU

4 How do We See Particles We see semi-stable particles by tracks in matter: Table-top illustrations Complex multi-ton detectors Andrei Gritsan, JHU March 29, 27

5 Particle Data Group: pdg.lbl.gov Andrei Gritsan, JHU

6 How do We See Particles Most particles live too short to be seen directly see decay products: Time (decay) and energy (resonance) amplitudes: A(t) =A()e ie t/ h e Γ t/2 h A(t) 2 e Γ t/ h = e t/τ A(E) = A(t)e iet/ h dt = C (E E ) iγ /2 Γ = h τ Andrei Gritsan, JHU March 29, 27

7 Unstable Resonance Particles The Uncertainty Principle (part 1): Probability A(m) 2 Γ τ = h compare: E t h A(m) 2 = C (m m ) iγ /2 2 Breit-Wigner resonance Andrei Gritsan, JHU March 29, 27

8 Unstable particles decay Feynman diagram: Decay Dynamics Decay study elementary particles and interactions (this strong decay is mostly understood) Andrei Gritsan, JHU March 29, 27

9 Periodic Table of Mesons Quark-antiquark make up a Meson: ground state (L=S=) Vector meson S=1 h Andrei Gritsan, JHU March 29, 27

12 Like Periodic Table of Atoms Andrei Gritsan, JHU March 29, 27

13 From large What to makes small mass? to elementary What gives us mass? Molecules Atoms Nucleus Andrei Gritsan, JHU XXV July 3, 214

14 Particle Data Group: Quarks Andrei Gritsan, JHU

15 Anti-Matter: Mirror Object of Matter matter anti-matter leptons quarks Produced equal in Big Bang energy matter + antimatter anti-matter should behave differently than matter Andrei Gritsan, JHU LXXX July 3, 214
