Usage Examples
Converse of object
- call: These groupings, called mesons and baryons, Let's look at what happened.
- charm: The program also treats some decays of charmed mesons and baryons.
Adjective modifier
- exclusive: Figure 5: H1 measurements of the W dependence of electroproduction and photoproduction cross sections of exclusive vector mesons.
- hybrid: Specifically, I am interested in: The calculation of the spectroscopy of exotic hybrid mesons.
- low: One contribution to the DIS g * p total cross section is the electroproduction of low mass vector mesons.
- exotic: Specifically, I am interested in: The calculation of the spectroscopy of exotic hybrid mesons.
- virtual: At lower energies the color singlet exchange of virtual mesons, called reggeons, contribute to the fall of the cross-section with increasing energy.
- mass: One contribution to the DIS g * p total cross section is the electroproduction of low mass vector mesons.
Modifies a noun
- decay: The main focus of the group is now on the search for CP violation in B meson decays.
- photoproduction: Integrating over the measured t dependence, the W dependence of the results on exclusive vector meson photoproduction cross-sections are shown in Fig.
- resonance: Solution method: The decay of baryon and meson resonances is simulated by a two and three body phase space Monte-Carlo model.
- field: The corresponding eigenfunctions serve to set up the equations of motion for the meson fields.
- mass: As the photon virtuality or the vector meson mass increase a new dependence on W 2 emerges.
- cross-section: Such a dependence describes the general increase of the, and vector meson cross-sections with increasing W.
Noun used with modifier
- vector: At small t there are problems triggering and, to a lesser extent, reconstructing the decay products of the vector meson.
- anti-b: The energy levels are set so that the annihilation usually produces neutral B and anti-B mesons.
- B: At CDF there is a unique opportunity to observe this mixing in Bs mesons.
- phi: Daphne will be dedicated to the production of phi mesons for the purpose of studying the CP-violation phenomenon.
- heavy-light: Abstract Last year we proposed using staggered fermions as the light quarks, combined with nonrelativistic heavy quarks, in simulations of heavy-light mesons.
- psi: One of the products of these collisions ( whether or not a plasma is formed ) is psi mesons.
