weak interaction [′wēk ‚in·tər′ak·shən] (particle physics) One of the fundamental interactions among elementary particles, responsible for beta decay of nuclei, and for the decay of elementary particles with lifetimes greater than about 10-10second, such as muons,Kmesons, and lambda hyperons; it is several orders of magnitude weaker than the strong and electromagnetic interactions, and fails to conserve strangeness or parity. Also known as beta interaction. How to thank TFD for its existence? Tell a friend about us, add a link to this page, add the site to iGoogle, or visit webmaster's page for free fun content. |
