Interaction Rate, Cross Section, and Amplitude Consider that beam A with density n a and velocity v i, hitting target B. Flux of the beam A is: Cross Section Interaction rate per a particle B is: flux f where M if is called as amplitude of the interaction with specific initial and final states, r f is energy density dn/de of final states. The amplitude can be calculated with Feynman s rules. A cross-section s (have dimension of m 2 ) In case of particle decay, decay width G and lifetime t are defined as: B 6

Charge Conjugation [1] The charge conjugation operation Ĉ is the operation which replaces all particles by their anti-particles in the same state. For particles a (= e +, p +, K +, p, n, ) which have distinctive antiparticles, wavefunctions are changed with Ĉ operation as : Or simply Ĉ operation transforms: 48
Charge Conjugation [2] For particles a (= p 0, g, ) which do not have distinctive antiparticles are eigenstates of the Ĉ operation as a single particle : In this case one can get a quantum number C, called C parity. Clearly the charge conjugation operation satisfies:, therefore C parity of p 0 49
Charge Conjugation [3] C parity is conserved with electromagnetic and strong interaction : but not with the weak interaction (will be discussed later). We will discuss only C-parity conserved cases. Conserved -> (Initial state C parity) = (Final state C parity) C-parity of two-photon system is (-1)(-1) = +1; 50
Charge Conjugation [4] In case of multi-particle system, the C-parity is a multiplicative number: If the multi-particle system are symmetric with the Ĉ operation, the system is an eigenstate of the Ĉ operation and has definite C-parity, for example: For a case of p + p - system with orbital momentum L, the C parity is: 51
[1] C-parity of multiple-particle system is a multiplicative number. [2] In case of multiple-particle system of particles that don't have intrinsic C-parity assignment, we have to go through Exercise 3, 4 and 5. Charged pions and proton/anti-proton cannot be C-parity eigenstate. Thus no C- parity assignment on individual particles. However, for a (pi+, pi-) system, we can assign. That is Exercise 3. [3] Examples: C-parity C-parity of 2 photon system is (-1)(-1) = +1; C-parity of 3 photon system is (-1)(-1)(-1) = -1; (1)... C is violated. (2)... C is conserved. Then okay for others? 52

Color Charges The quarks cannot appear as a single free quark, due to its color charge (= red, green, blue). In any actual particles combined by quarks, the color have to be cancelled to white. Therefore there are two types of combinations: Baryons (qqq) Mesons (qq) Blue white Yellow (=anti-blue) 68
