Natural Science Forum / Physics / Particle Physics / September 2004proton-antiproton pair production
Can anyone point me to the equations for proton-antiproton pair prodution from photon collisions? And is it related to how electron-positron pair production occurs, in reference to Dirac's equations? Thanks! > Can anyone point me to the equations for proton-antiproton pair > prodution from photon collisions?

Bjorken and Drell is one you should be able to find in used book stores for cheap. PD > > Can anyone point me to the equations for proton-antiproton pair > > prodution from photon collisions?

I have read a bit on J.D Bjorken and S.D Drells work from Relativistic Quantum Mechanics, specially in regards to Dirac matrices. Very good resource for electron-positron pair production. I was hoping to find more information leaning toward proton-antiproton pair production, as they (protons) are not fundemental particles like electrons, I'm only guessing that it would be, at least slightly different equations. Thank you again. > > > Can anyone point me to the equations for proton-antiproton pair > > > prodution from photon collisions?

In that case, if you want to make the most direct comparison, then try an HEP textbook, like the ones by David Griffiths, B. R. Martin, Don Perkins, or Abe Seiden. If you want to look at it in detail, then it is very much different than e-e+ production, there being three pairs of quark-antiquarks that have to be created in the annihilation.
