List of Charge Conjugation and Parity numbers

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the search for a comprehensive list of Charge Conjugation and Parity numbers for various particles, including specific requests for information on the neutral eta meson, neutral pi meson, and neutral rho meson. The scope includes theoretical aspects of particle physics and the conventions used to denote these properties.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses difficulty in finding a consolidated list of Charge Conjugation and Parity numbers for particles and mentions specific particles of interest.
  • Another participant provides links to Wikipedia pages that contain relevant information about mesons and baryons, suggesting these as resources for the requested data.
  • A third participant shares a link to a more extensive database that may include additional particles and their properties.
  • A later reply acknowledges the helpfulness of the provided resources and expresses gratitude for clarifying the conventions related to these quantities.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the usefulness of the provided resources, but there is no consensus on the availability of a single comprehensive list as initially requested.

Contextual Notes

The discussion highlights the challenge of locating specific particle properties and the reliance on external sources, which may vary in completeness and clarity.

Hi everyone,

i am just wondering why I cannot find a list of Charge Conjugation and Parity numbers for all the appropriate particles?

I mean, I can look online and sift through sources for individual particles (for example, after some research I have found the the photon has a charge conjugation number of -1, and it's parity is -1), however this is very tiring.

Is there anybody out there who has a good list of these things?

Thanks for your help!

(I especially would like to find this information for the neutral eta meson, the neutral pi meson, and the neutral rho meson)

Thank you so much. That is so helpful. I did not understand this convention and had no idea it had to do with these quantities.

Cheers!
