 ===== Change of Rest Mass Energy =====
-Until now, you have dealt with particles that do not change their identity. Changing the identity of a particle occurs when a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_fission|particle decays to another particle]] (or, typically, set of particles), or when [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_fusion|two or more particles fuse together]]. In these notes, you will read about a new unit of energy (the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronvolt|electron volt]]) and how to use energy to predict or explain particle decay.
