The tiniest particles……or are they?
![Page 5: Jefferson Lab Presentation to Teacher Education Program November 8, 2006 Subatomic Particles: What do we study at Jefferson Lab? Dr. Allison Lung 12 GeV.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649e385503460f94b28ba6/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Just how big are they? What about all that empty space?

Atoms are 99.999999999999% empty space !!

World of Atoms – a little background education
Atom: nucleus of neutrons & protons with orbiting electrons
go down one layer
Electron: very light particle with negative chargeProton: weight equals ~2000 electrons, positive charge
Neutron: weight almost equal to proton, no net charge
go down one layer
Quarks: fundamental particles, 6 types, up/down/strange are the lightest and most common
Forces: strong, electromagnetic, weak, gravity; strong force holds quarks together
go down one layer ???
is there another layer ???

World of Atoms – a little background education
we are more “empty space” than matter,
“empty space” is filled with carefully balanced forces,
get students to expand on the solar system model of atoms

What really cool, tiny stuff do we study?
What forces hold the neutrons and protons together in an atom?
What forces hold the quarks inside a proton together?
How is electric charge distributed within a neutron or proton?
How is magnetic field distributed within a neutron or proton?
Does a “free” quark behave the same as a quark bound inside a proton?
Does a “free” quark behave the same as a quark bound inside a heavy atom?

What are we studying right now ?
How do strange quarks contribute
to the properties of the proton?
Do they contribute to the spin?
Are the strange quark’s electric
interactions different from their
magnetic interactions?

quark’s spin doesn’t match neutron’s spin
What have we learned lately ?
proton can take many shapes……
Pentaquark – 5 quark combinations may exist?

SUMMARY
Jefferson Lab: • studies how protons and neutrons make up the nucleus of atoms• studies how quarks and gluons make up neutrons and protons• collides electrons with atomic targets and measures the energy, speed, and
trajectory of scattered particles
for your students• introduce the solar system model of the atom• go further...introduce forces (gravity, weak, electromagnetic, strong)• gee whiz factor!
– we are more “empty space” than matter– there are incredible forces acting in that “empty space”
physics is a great career !

Nuclear Physics as a Career
• college degree(s) required in physics, math, or computer science
• possible career paths:– government laboratory scientist– university professor & researcher– computer firms– modeling economic trends on Wall Street– start-up technology companies (medical imaging, cryogenic helium…..)
• salary range at Jefferson Lab (comparable to university professors):– Staff Scientist I (approx. $48,000 to $75,000)– Staff Scientist II (approx. $60,000 to $95,000)– Staff Scientist III (approx $75,000 to $120,000)
