NOUN
- any particle that obeys Fermi-Dirac statistics and is subject to the Pauli exclusion principle
How To Use fermion In A Sentence
- Supersymmetric theories are good places to look for exotic matter in the form of fermionic superpartners of bosonic particles that carry forces.
- The discoveries described in Science also would apply to clocks using atoms known as bosons, which, unlike fermions, can exist in the same place and energy state at the same time. Undefined
- P. P.arle was the first to propose [P.arle, 1990] a relativistic generalization of CSL to a quantum field theory describing a fermion field coupled to a meson scalar field enriched with the introduction of stochastic and nonlinear terms. Collapse Theories
- The mass scale characterizing each Kaluza-Klein tower can be chosen independently for each species of scalar, fermion, or gauge boson. Aether Compactification
- But if supersymmetry were unbroken, fermions and bosons would be exactly matched in the Universe, and that's not the way things are.
- Assuming that the parity operator is hermitian, meaning it is observable, means that its eigenvalues can only be real, meaning there are only two possibilities: 1 or -1. (squareroot of 1 is either 1 or -1). which leads to the conclusion that in this simplified case of two particles in one dimension there are two types of wavefunctions, one we will call bosons and the other fermions. Thanksgiving
- Below this mass, these dense, compact objects are supported against further gravitational collapse by fermion-degeneracy pressure.
- In 2003 the last five of these groups produced ultracold molecules by causing pairs of fermionic atoms to associate with one another at a Feshbach resonance.
- The biggest problem with bosonic string theory (aside from the lack of fermions) is that the lowest energy state was a tachyon, or a particle mode with negative mass squared.
- Assuming that this is no error, then the term "fermion" is ambiguous between elementary particle and composite particle. Walter Kohn and Density-Functional Theory
