Nuclear Physics, A Very Short Introduction

Frank Close 2015, Tigard Lib 539.7 CLO

  • p11 1909-11 Rutherford and Marsden bombard gold foil with alphas, 1/10000 bounce back, demonstrates dense positive nucleus less than 1e-12 by volume.
  • p12 1913 Bohr "planetary" model for electron, except solar system planets denser than electrons in atoms
  • p13 quarks smaller than 1e-4 nuclear radius
  • p15 Patrick Blackett 1921-4 23,000 cloud chamber photographs of alphas bombarding nitrogen, eight examples of proton ejection and an oxygen

  • p19 Chadwick neutron 1932

  • p23 Pauli hypothesized neutrino 1931

    • proton, neutron, electron, neutrino spin 1/2
  • p25Joliot-Curies irradiated aluminum with alpha (helium) particles from radium (or polonium?), produced phosphorus-30 with 3 minute half life

  • p26 Al[13p14n] + He[2p2n] => n + P[15p15n] ( 3 min ) => Si[16p14n] + positron + neutrino

  • p26 1935 Nobel, Frédéric suggests "transmutations of an explosive type"
  • p27 Hahn and Strassmann fission 1938, Fermi slow neutrons with paraffin or water so they don't shatter nuclei

  • 027 Lisa Meitner and Otto Frisch liquid drop model, instability, fission

  • 028 Planck law E=hv
  • 032 Strong force, neutron stability in nucleus

  • 036 pions emitted when neutrons or protons "pummeled"

  • 037 ΔE × Δt ≈ 140MeV × 1e-23s < h/4π, hence pion range about 1 fm inside nucleus

  • 038 quark binding force increases with distanc

  • 040 Quark-gluon plasma beginning universe

  • 041 Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider gold or lead atoms, 50x density compared to cold nuclei

  • 041 Blue Riband

  • 045 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_number_(physics)
