Explanation In particle physics, decay only possible when there will be maintain conservation of laws in decay reaction and the resultant particle should be less massive than original particle. When the charge is conserved, the possible reaction is Ω + → Ξ ¯ 0 + π + . When the charge and energy is conserved, the possible reaction is K ¯ s 0 → π + + π . When the charge and energy is conserved, the possible reaction is K ¯ s 0 → π 0 + π 0 . When the charge, energy and baryon number is conserved, the possible reaction is Λ ¯ s 0 → π + + p ¯ . When the charge, energy, electron lepton number and baryon number is conserved, the possible reaction is n ¯ → p ¯ + e + + ν e

Suppose a cyclotron is operated at an oscillator frequency of 11.2 MHz and has a dee radius 41.9 cm. Estimate the total path length traveled by a deuteron in the cyclotron during the (entire) acceleration process. Assume that the accelerating potential between the dees is 60.4 kV. The deuteron mass is m = 3.34 × 10-27 kg.

The Σ* particle has a rest energy of 1385 MeV and a lifetime of 2.0 × 10-23 s. What would be a typical range of outcomes of measurements of the Σ* rest energy?

The Σ− b (5816 MeV) resonance has a lifetime of 1.3 × 10^−22 s. What is its decay width? Help please, I know the answer is 2.5 MeV just not sure how to get there.
