Majorana fermions - PowerPoint PPT Presentation


Understanding Feynman Diagrams in Particle Physics

Feynman diagrams, developed by Richard Feynman in the 1940s, are a graphical technique to represent particle interactions in space-time. These diagrams use lines to depict particles, with fermions moving forward in time and antifermions moving backward. Vertices in the diagrams represent points wher
