The Z0 boson, discovered in 1985, is the mediator of the weak nuclear force, and it typically decays very quickly. Its average r

est energy is 91.19 GeV, but its short lifetime shows up as an intrinsic width of 2.5 GeV. what is the lifetime of this particle?

Answer:

The lifetime of the particle is  \Delta  t  =  2.6*10^{-25} \ s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The average rest energy is E =  91.19 \ GeV =  91.19GeV  *    \frac{1.60 *10^{-10} J }{1GeV} = 1.46 *10^{-8}J

    The intrinsic width is  \Delta E  =2.5eV  = 2.5GeV   *  \frac{1.60 *10^{-10}J  }{1GeV}  =  4*10^{-10} J

The lifetime is mathematically represented as

     \Delta  t  =  \frac{h}{\Delta E}

Where h is the Planck's constant with a value of  1.055*10^{-34} \ J\cdot s  

substituting values

    \Delta  t  =  \frac{1.055*10^{-34}}{4 *10^{-10}}

     \Delta  t  =  2.6*10^{-25} \ s
