Exercise 1

Questions:

1. How many charged beam particles enter the chamber?
2. In what direction is the beam moving (from the bottom to the top or vice versa)?
3. Are there any knock-on electrons?
4. What is the direction of the magnetic field?
5. How many collisions do you see?
6. How many particles result from each of the collisions?
7. Identify the charges of these particles?
8. What is the charge of each of the beam particles (assuming collisions are with protons)?
9. How many kinks do you see?
10. How many vees do you see?
11. How many particles result from the decays?
12. Identify the charges of the particles from decays?
13. Consider the main collision/interaction. Which of the charged particles from the collision has the lowest momentum? How do you know?
