Counting Quarks
University of Southampton
Our goal is to learn about the particles of nature using real data from accelerators
We will not explore the theory too much just what you see…
Nuclear matter (“hadrons”) is made of quarks – we are going to experimentally determine how many quarks there are…

Some Simple Events
Strong Nuclear ForceThe force between quarks grows with distance !!!!!
Energy builds up between them until many quarks are produced that arrange themselves into strong force neutral hadrons – we see jets…
Taus are heavier electrons again – 3500 times heavier…
They decay to quarks and electrons/muons in the detector…. Yuk!
The Weak Nuclear Force (Beta Decay)
The likelihood that a W will decay to quarks or leptons is the same.. If we produce Ws and count the relative probabilities of outcomes we can count how many quarks there are…
Neutrinos only interact by the weak force – once produced we never see them again…
WW Events at LEP
Each W can decay to e, plus a neutrino
LEPTONIC DECAY
Each W can decay to two quarks
HADRONIC DECAY
The decays are so fast you’ll only see the final products in the detector…

ResultsWe know there are three sorts of leptons (e,so there are 9 ways to get double leptonic events
DL = 9
If there are N quarks we expect N double hadronic events
DH = N
& mixed decays
M = 2 x 3 x N = 6 N

We got… N=? N=? N=?

What should we have got?
LEP has enough energy to make four quarks
up
down
charm
strange
BUT – there is an additional factor of three because each quark has three different sorts of charges associated with the strong force
