-Short paper report of Reading Assignments discussed in
class, and with details specified in the email from me. Reading
from Wong for Cody/Brian Topic 2). Jiri
Chyla Free Textbook online "Quarks, partons and Quantum
Chromodynamics" (very nice reference for virtually all of this
course)
which contains the reading assignment
for Bijaya and Arbin. -3 or more pages, Font Size <= 12
point Questions: Directions
-1) Summarize the entire reading assignment,
include
important points explained therein, you should include plots, if
appropriate.
-2) Explain the derivation of (you don't
need to DO the
derivation) and the significance of the 2 most important equations
-3) Relate at least one or more equations to
formulas or
topics we discussed in class at any point.
-4) You think of something else to
write about
if you are short of the 3 pages.
