Leon has discovered three new particle decay processes, S, W, and E, which occur through the strong, weak, and electromagnetic forces respectively. Unfortunately, after he prints out his data, he accidentally mixes up his papers, and can only see that the half-lives of the three processes are 10^-23 seconds, 10^-17 seconds, and 10^-8 seconds. Identify which half-life corresponds to which decay process.
