Does anyone know where I can find out the properties of fundamental particles? In particular charge, baryon number, lepton number, muonic number and strangeness.

Homework Statement Derive the optical length of the incident light being reflected back to the surface of the lens with radius r1. Homework Equations i have assumed that the surfaces can be given as r^2 = y^2+z^2 there are 2 surfaces of the lens with radii r1 and r2 The Attempt at...

Q. There is a fish in a spherical fish bowl of radius r filled with water. The fish is at a distance l from the surface of the tank. An observer in air views the fish at a distance d from the tank. Please see the attachment for the image. I am supposed to find the optical power and focus...

Optics reply Exactly like the C-4 diagram. Let z1(y) and z2(y) be the expressions for the two surfaces of the lens in Figure 1 (see attachment) respectively. Write down the Taylor expansions of z1 and z2 to the fourth power of y.

I have been asked to write down the taylor expansion for two concentric spherical surfaces with radii r1 and r2 of a lens and mirror combination which I think is called a Mangin Mirror. It is supposed to be related to the x and y-axis positions. Also, I have been asked to derive the...
