Day 150: LOL Diagrams for Particle Physics

I love how some of my students continue to apply energy LOL diagrams long after we have finished the “energy” unit. In AP Physic B, we are in the midsts of an abbreviated particle physics unit. This group drew the LOL diagram for the collision of two high-energy protons creating a pion. The units for energy have changed to MeV, but the diagrammatic representation has not.
