Hi
The diagram I am referring is shown at 1:45 of this classic Symphony of Science tune
Thanks,

And where is the figure or video that you are referencing?Calconceptofnumber1 said:Hi

The Z Boson is represented as a triangle in the Feynman diagram because it is a vector boson, meaning that it carries both mass and spin. The triangle shape in the diagram is used to represent this spin, with the point of the triangle indicating the direction of spin.
The triangular shape of the Z Boson in the Feynman diagram reflects its properties as a vector boson with spin. The direction and orientation of the triangle in the diagram correspond to the direction and orientation of the Z Boson's spin.
No, the triangular representation in the Feynman diagram is used for all vector bosons, including the W Boson and the photon. This shape is used to indicate the spin of these particles.
The triangle shape is used in the Feynman diagram to represent spin because it is a simple and effective way to visualize the direction and orientation of the spin of a particle. Other shapes, such as squares or circles, would not convey this information as clearly.
No, the size of the triangle in the diagram does not have any significance for the Z Boson. The shape and orientation of the triangle are what convey information about the spin of the particle, not its size.
