R-parityR-parity is a concept in particle physics. In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, baryon number and lepton number are no longer conserved by all of the renormalizable couplings in the theory. Since baryon number and lepton number conservation have been tested very precisely, these couplings need to be very small in order not to be in conflict with experimental data. R-parity is a symmetry acting on the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) fields that forbids these couplings and can be defined as or, equivalently, as where s is spin, B is baryon number, and L is lepton number.
Particule subatomiqueUne particule subatomique est un composant de la matière. Elle a une taille inférieure à celle d'un atome. On distingue les particules élémentaires des particules composites. La branche de la physique qui les étudie est appelée la physique des particules. Modèle standard (physique des particules) La recherche sur les particules subatomiques a permis de mettre en évidence : d'une part, les constituants atomiques tels que les protons, les neutrons et les électrons, ainsi que leurs constituants (notamment les quarks) ; d'autre part, les particules produites par les phénomènes de rayonnement et de dispersion, tels que les photons, les neutrinos, et les muons.
Truly neutral particleIn particle physics, a truly neutral particle is a subatomic particle that is its own antiparticle. In other words, it remains itself under the charge conjugation, which replaces particles with their corresponding antiparticles. All charges of a truly neutral particle must be equal to zero. This requires particles to not only be electrically neutral, but also requires that all of their other charges (such as the colour charge) be neutral.
