Strange Particles
-
Created via strong interaction, decay via weak interaction.
-
Cosmic rays
-
What are they? High-energy particles from outer space, mainly protons.
Hadrons vs Leptons
Hadrons: Interact via strong force (e.g., protons, neutrons, mesons).
Leptons: Do not feel strong force (e.g., electrons, muons, neutrinos).
Baryons vs Mesons
Mesons: Quark-antiquark pairs (e.g., π⁺ = u 𝑑̅).
Baryons: Made of 3 quarks (e.g., proton = uud).

Conservation of Energy
total energy before = total energy after (includes kinetic, mass-energy).
