antiquark

Examples

• All

• Because three quarks make a baryon, we say that each quark has baryon number B = +1/3. For antiquarks, B = -1/3.

• In particular, they measured the production of the J/? meson—the bound state of the charmed quark and its antiquark.

• The three jets are attributed to a quark-antiquark pair plus a gluon.

• The sum sigma includes the contribution of quark-antiquark pairs.

• For Q between 1 and 100 GeV, virtual quark-antiquark pairs dominate the vacuum polarization, and g w, like e, should increase with Q.

• And if you increase the energy further, we see a lot of new particles appearing, quarks and antiquarks and gluons which make up the the structure of the proton.

• The asymmetry between matter and antimatter is quite modest; for every 30 million antiquarks in its inventory, the Universe has 30 million and one quarks of "ordinary" matter.

• At extreme temperatures, matter exists in the form of microscopic particles called quarks and antiquarks, rather than the more familiar protons and neutrons we know today.

  Academic text (2000)

• At extremely high energy densities, QCD predicts a new form of matter, consisting of an extended volume of interacting quarks, antiquarks, and gluons.

• Each particle also has an antiparticle, such as an antiquark.
