Question
Chapter 39, Problem 1FTD
To determine
The fundamental difference between baryons and leptons.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1FTD
The fundamental differenc is that the Leptons are particles that don’t experience strong force and hadrons are which experience strong force.
Explanation of Solution
Leptons are particles that don’t experience strong force. Every lepton has its anti particle. There are six lepton-anti lepton pairs. Leptons have spin
1 2
. So; they are fermions and will obey Pauli’s exclusion principle.
All baryons are hadrons which experience strong force. Baryons also have spin
Conclusion: Therefore, fundamental difference is that the Leptons are particles that don’t experience strong force and hadrons are which experience strong force.
