Look at a different kind of plot.


Determine the shape of the plot: To find the relationship between time and space separations for the creation and decay of a charmed meson, you need to find an equation for the curve. Drag the cursor over the fits on the lower right to overlay them on the plots. The plot on the upper left is the entire set of data; the plot on the upper right is the zoom which contains the origin (outlined in gray on the full plot).

Which fit do you think matches the data? Choose a shape from the pull-down menu below.
