HEP Journal Club
Quarks
Over the years inquiring minds have asked:
“Can we describe the known physics with just a few building blocks ?”
Þ Historically the answer has been yes.
Elements of Mendeleev’s Periodic Table (chemistry)
nucleus of atom made of protons, neutrons
proton and neutron really same “particle” (different isotopic spin)
By 1950’s there was evidence for many new particles beyond g, e, p, n
It was realized that even these new particles fit certain patterns:
pions: p+(140 MeV) p-(140 MeV) po(135 MeV)
kaons: k+(496 MeV) k-(496 MeV) ko(498 MeV)
Some sort of pattern was emerging, but lots of questions
Þ If mass difference between proton neutrons, pions, and kaons is due
to electromagnetism then how come:
Mn > Mp and Mko > Mk+ but Mp+ > Mpo
Lots of models concocted to try to explain why these particles exist:
Þ Model of Fermi and Yang (late 1940’s-early 50’s):
pion is composed of nucleons and anti-nucleons (used SU(2) symmetry)
note this model was proposed
before discovery of anti-proton !
With the discovery of new unstable particles (L, k) a new quantum number was invented:
Þ strangeness

6. Mn > Mp and Mko > Mk+ and Mp+ > Mpo
HEP Journal Club
Quarks
Gell-Mann, Nakano, Nishijima realized that electric charge (Q) of all particles could be related to isospin (3rd component), Baryon number (B) and Strangeness (S):
Q = I3 +(S + B)/2= I3 +Y/2
Coin the name hypercharge (Y) for (S+B)
Interesting patterns started to emerge when I3 was plotted vs. Y:
Particle Model of Sakata (mid 50’s):
used Q = I3 +(S + B)/2
assumed that all particles could be made from a combination of p,n, L
tried to use SU(3) symmetry
In this model:
This model obeys Fermi statistics and explains why:
Mn > Mp and Mko > Mk+ and Mp+ > Mpo
Unfortunately, the model had major problems….

7. Quarks Problems with Sakata’s Model:
HEP Journal Club
Quarks
Problems with Sakata’s Model:
Why should the p, n, and L be the fundamental objects ?
why not pions and/or kaons
This model did not have the proper group structure for SU(3)
What do we mean by “group structure” ?
SU(n)= (nxn) Unitary matrices (MT*M=1) with determinant = 1 (=Special) and
n=simplest non-trivial matrix representation
Example: With 2 fundamental objects obeying SU(2) (e.g. n and p)
We can combine these objects using 1 quantum number (e.g. isospin)
Get 3 Isospin 1 states that are symmetric under interchange of n and p:
|11> =|1/2 1/2> |1/2 1/2>
|1-1> =|1/2 -1/2> |1/2 -1/2>
|10> = [1/Ö2](|1/2 1/2> |1/2 -1/2> + |1/2 -1/2> |1/2 1/2>)
Get 1 Isospin state that is anti-symmetric under interchange of n and p
|00> = [1/Ö2](|1/2 1/2> |1/2 -1/2> - |1/2 -1/2> |1/2 1/2>)
In group theory we have 2 multiplets, a 3 and a 1:
2 Ä 2 = 3 Å1
Back to Sakata's model:
For SU(3) there are 2 quantum numbers and the group structure is more complicated:
3 Ä 3 Ä 3 = 1 Å 8 Å 8 Å 10
Expect 4 multiplets (groups of similar particles) with either 1, 8, or 10 members.
Sakata’s model said that the p, n, and L were a multiplet which does not fit into the above scheme of known particles! (e.g. could not account for So, S+)

12. From Quarks to Particles
HEP Journal Club
From Quarks to Particles
How do we "construct" baryons and mesons from quarks ?
Use SU(3) as the group (1960’s model)
This group has 8 generators (n2-1, n=3)
Each generator is a 3x3 linearly independent traceless hermitian matrix
Only 2 of the generators are diagonal Þ 2 quantum numbers
Hypercharge = Strangeness + Baryon number = Y
Isospin (I3)
In this model (1960’s) there are 3 quarks, which are the eigenvectors (3 row column vector)
of the two diagonal generators (Y and I3)
Baryons are made up of a bound state of 3 quarks
Mesons are a quark-antiquark bound state
The quarks are added together to form mesons and baryons using the rules of SU(3).
M&S P
It is interesting to plot Y vs. I3 for quarks and anti-quarks:

What is the experimental evidence that quarks have non-integer charge ?
Þ Both the mass splitting of baryons and mesons and baryon magnetic moments depend on (e/m) not e.
Some quark models with integer charge quarks (e.g. Han-Nambu) were also successful in explaining mass patterns of mesons and baryons.
Need a quantity that can be measured that depends only on electric charge !
Consider the vector mesons (V=r, w, f, y, U): quark-antiquark bound states with:
mass ¹ 0
electric charge = 0
orbital angular momentum (L) =0
spin = 1
charge parity (C) = -1
parity = -1
strangeness = charm = bottom=top = 0
These particles have the same quantum numbers as the photon.
The vector mesons can be produced by its coupling to a photon:
e+e- ® g ® V e.g. : e+e- ® g ® Y(1S) or y
The vector mesons can decay by its coupling to a photon:
V® g ® e+e- e.g. : r® g ® e+e- (BR=6x10-5) or y®g ® e+e- (BR=6.3x10-2)

21. Magnet Moments of Baryons
HEP Journal Club
Magnet Moments of Baryons
Magnetic Moments of Baryons
The magnetic moment of a spin 1/2 point like object in Dirac Theory is:
m = (eh/2pmc)s = (eh/2pmc) s/2, (s = Pauli matrix)
The magnetic moment depends on the mass (m), spin (s), and electric charge (e) of a point like object.
From QED we know the magnetic moment of the leptons is responsible for the energy difference between the 13S1 and 11So states of positronium (e-e+):
13S1 ® 11So Energy splitting calculated = ±10 Mhz
measured = ±2 Mhz
If baryons (s =1/2, 3/2...) are made up of point like spin = 1/2 fermions (i.e. quarks!) then we should be able to go from quark magnetic moments to baryon magnetic moments.
Note: Long standing physics puzzle was the ratio of neutron and proton moments:
Experimentally: mp/mn » -3/2
In order to calculate m we need to know the wavefunction of the particle.
In the quark model the space, spin, and flavor (isotopic spin) part of the wavefunction is symmetric under the exchange of two quarks.
The color part of the wavefunction must be anti-symmetric to satisfy the Pauli Principle (remember the D++). Thus we have:
y = R(x,y,z) (Isotopic) (Spin) (Color)
Þ Since we are dealing with ground states (L=0), R(x,y,z) will be symmetric.
always anti-symmetric because
hadrons are colorless

22. Magnet Moments of Baryons
HEP Journal Club
Magnet Moments of Baryons
Þ Consider the spin of the proton. We must make a spin 1/2 object out of
3 spin 1/2 objects (proton = uud)
From table of Clebsch-Gordon coefficients we find:
Also we have: |1 1> = |1/2 1/2> |1/2 1/2>
For convenience, switch notation to “spin up” and “spin down”:
|1/2 1/2> = ­ and |1/2-1/2> = ¯
Thus the spin part of the wavefunction can be written as:
Note: the above is symmetric under the interchange of the first two spins.
Consider the Isospin (flavor) part of the proton wavefunction.
Since Isospin must have the two u quarks in a symmetric (I=1) state this means that spin must also have the u quarks in a symmetric state.
This implies that in the 2­­¯ term in the spin function the two ­­ are the u quarks.
But in the other terms the u’s have opposite sz’s.
We need to make a symmetric spin and flavor (Isospin) proton wavefunction.

23. Magnet Moments of Baryons
HEP Journal Club
Magnet Moments of Baryons
We can write the symmetric spin and flavor (Isospin) proton wavefunction as:
The above wavefunction is symmetric under the interchange of any two quarks.
To calculate the magnetic moment of the proton we note that if m is the magnetic moment operator:
m=m1+m2+m3 Composite magnetic moment = sum of moments.
<u| m |u> = mu = magnet moment of u quark
<d| m |d> = md = magnet moment of d quark
<usz| m |usz> = mu|sz = (2e/3)(1/mu)(sz)(h/2pc), with sz = ±1/2
<dsz| m |dsz> = md|sz = (-e/3)(1/md)(sz)(h/2pc), with sz = ±1/2
<usz=1/2| m |usz=-1/2> =0, etc..
For the proton (uud) we have:
<yp|m|yp> = (1/18) [24mu,1/ m d,-1/2 + 3 md,1/2 + 3 m d,1/2]
<yp|m|yp> = (24/18)mu,1/2 - (6/18)md,1/2 using md,1/2 = - md,-1/2
<yp|m|yp> = (4/3)mu,1/2 - (1/3)md,1/2
For the neutron (udd) we find:
<yn|m|yn> = (4/3)md,1/2 - (1/3)mu,1/2

24. Magnet Moments of Baryons
HEP Journal Club
Magnet Moments of Baryons
Let’s assume that mu = md = m, then we find:
<yp| m |yp>=(4/3)(h/2pc) (1/2)(2e/3)(1/m)-(1/3)(h/2pc)(1/2)(-e/3)(1/m)
<yp| m |yp>=(he/4pmc) [1]
<yn| m |yn>=( 4/3)(h/2pc) (1/2)(-e/3)(1/m)-(1/3)(h/2pc)(1/2)(2e/3)(1/m)
<yn| m |yn>=( he/4pmc) [-2/3]
Thus we find:
In general, the magnetic moments calculated from the quark model are in
good agreement with the experimental data!

Review of scatterings and differential cross section.
The cross section (s) gives the probability for a scattering to occur.
unit of cross section is area (barn=10-24 cm2)

What happens if we don’t have a point-like target, i.e. there is some structure inside
the target?
The most common example is when the electric charge is spread out over space and
is not just a “point” charge.
Example: Scattering off of a charge distribution. The Rutherford cross section is modified to be:
with: E=E¢ and
The new term |F(q2)| is often called the form factor.
The form factor is related to Fourier transform of the charge distribution r(r) by:
usually
In this simple model we could learn about an unknown charge distribution (structure) by measuring how many scatters occur in an angular region and comparing this measurement with what is expected for a "point charge" (|F(q2)|2=1 (what's the charge distribution here?) and our favorite theoretical mode of the charge distribution.

Elastic electron proton scattering (1950’s)
Electron-proton scattering: We assume that the electron is a point particle. The "target" is a proton which is assumed to have some "size" (structure). Consider the case where the scattering does not break the proton apart (elastic scattering). Here everything is "known" about the electron and photon part of the scattering process since we are using QED.
As shown in Griffiths (8.3) and many other textbooks we can describe the proton in terms of two (theoretically) unknown (but measurable) functions or "form factors", K1, K2:
This is known as the Rosenbluth formula (1950). This formula assumes that scattering takes place due to interactions that involve both the electric charge and the magnetic moment of the proton.
Thus by shooting electrons at protons at various energies and counting the number of electrons scattered into a given solid angle (dW =|sinqdqdf|) one can measure K1 and K2.
note:q2 is the electron four momentum transfer: (p¢-p)2 = -4EE'sin2(q/2), and:
