The S⁺,S⁰,and S^- all have strangeness of (-1).The collision of an anti-proton and a neutron may produce which of the following particles? A)S^- and S⁰ B)S⁺ and anti-S⁰ C)anti-S⁺ and S⁰ D)anti-S^- and S⁰

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The collision of an anti-proton and a neutron can produce particles with a total strangeness of zero. The combination of anti-S⁺ (strangeness +1) and S⁰ (strangeness -1) results in a net strangeness of zero, conserving strangeness in the reaction.

The S+,S0,and S- All Have Strangeness of (-1)

The S⁺,S⁰,and S^- All Have Strangeness of (-1)
