A stationary particle in free space is observed to spontaneously decay into two photons. This implies that
A. the particle carries electric charge
B. the spin of the particle must be greater than or equal to 2
C. the particle is a boson
D. the mass of the particle must be greater than or equal to the mass of the hydrogen atom
Answer: Option C
A. Thorium series
B. Neptunium series
C. Uranium series
D. Actinium series
A. 10-10 eV
B. 10-9 eV
C. 10-6 eV
D. 10-4 eV
A. The process is allowed because ΔS = 0
B. The process is allowed because $$\Delta {I_3} = 0$$
C. The process is not allowed because ΔS ≠ 1 and $$\Delta {I_3} \ne 0$$
D. The process is not allowed because the Baryon number is violated
A. $${\left( {{}^1{s_{1/2}}} \right)^2}{\left( {{}^1{p_{3/2}}} \right)^3};\,J = \frac{3}{2}$$
B. $${\left( {{}^1{s_{1/2}}} \right)^2}{\left( {{}^1{p_{1/2}}} \right)^2}{\left( {{}^1{p_{3/2}}} \right)^1};\,J = \frac{3}{2}$$
C. $${\left( {{}^1{s_{1/2}}} \right)^1}{\left( {{}^1{p_{3/2}}} \right)^4};\,J = \frac{1}{2}$$
D. $${\left( {{}^1{s_{1/2}}} \right)^2}{\left( {{}^1{p_{3/2}}} \right)^2}{\left( {{}^1{p_{1/2}}} \right)^1};\,J = \frac{1}{2}$$
