Descriptor English: Elementary Particle Interactions
Descriptor Spanish: Interacciones de Partículas Elementales
Descriptor interacciones de partículas elementales
Scope note: Interacciones de partículas responsables de su dispersión y transformación (desintegraciones y reacciones). A causa de las interacciones, una partícula aislada puede desintegrarse en otras partículas. Dos partículas con trayectorias próximas pueden transformarse, quizás en las mismas partículas pero con momentos diferentes (dispersión elástica) o en otras partículas (dispersión inelástica). Las interacciones se dividen en tres grupos: fuertes, electromagnéticas y débiles. (McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science & Technology, 7th ed)

Scope note: The interactions of particles responsible for their scattering and transformations (decays and reactions). Because of interactions, an isolated particle may decay into other particles. Two particles passing near each other may transform, perhaps into the same particles but with changed momenta (elastic scattering) or into other particles (inelastic scattering). Interactions fall into three groups: strong, electromagnetic, and weak. (From McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science & Technology, 7th ed)
