Draw a feynman diagram that explains the decay

Reference no: EM13994716

Consider the decay of the charmed hyperon Λ(⁺_C) (mass = 2285 MeV/c²) particle made up of the (udc) combination of three quarks.

a.) This particle can decay into a Λ^o (uds)+Π⁺(ud) combination. What interaction is responsible for this decay? Explain.

b.) Draw a Feynman diagram that explains this decay.

c.) Create a Feynman diagram for a process where the Λ(⁺_C) (udc) mass = 2285 MeV/c²) decays to a Λ^o(uds) (mass = 1116 MeV/c²) plus leptons (including neutrinos). The possible charged leptons are the electron (mass = 0.511 MeV/c²), the muon (mass = 106 MeV/c²), and the τ‾ (mass = 1777 MeV/c²) and their antiparticles. Which leptons are possible decay products?
