What structure did Melvin Schwartz help demonstrating?

  • Double helix structure of DNA

  • Doublet structure of the leptons

  • Crystal lattice structure

  • Structure of the solar system

Answer

Melvin Schwartz helped demonstrating the doublet structure of the leptons, which are elementary particles that are not affected by the strong force and include electrons, muons, and tau particles. The doublet structure means that leptons come in pairs, with each pair consisting of a particle and an antiparticle. For example, the electron is paired with the positron, and the muon is paired with the antimuon.
