AG* *If you want to measure the half life of a muon in the lab then you make sure that the relative velocity between the lab and the muon is zero, or at least very small. But when you measure the half life of a muon that comes from space when you're sitting on a mountain the muon is moving close to the speed of light relative to your measuring equipment on top of that mountain. * *John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis>* ebc > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
