Particle Physics

Particles and Radiation
1. Atomic structure
  1. Each atom is ~1x10^-10m in diameter
  2. Specific Charge is the ratio of charge to mass of a particle / C kg^-1
    1. Specific charge = charge / mass
2. Stable and unstable nuclei
  1. Forces in the nucleus
    1. Electromagnetic force
      1. Causes positively charged protons in the nucleus to repel eachother
      2. Much larger than gravitational force
    2. Gravitational force
      1. Causes the nucleons in the nucleus to attract each other due to their mass
      2. Small, can be ignored
    3. Strong Nuclear force
      1. Stronger than electromagnetic force
3. Antiparticles and Photons
4. Classification of particles
5. Quarks and antiquarks
6. Particle interactions
Electromagnetic Radiation and Quantum Phenomena
1. The Photoelectric effect
2. Energy levels in atoms
3. Wave-Particle duality
