So a neutron becomes a proton, an electron and an antineutrino. Ok.
This is like telling me that a dog can turn into a cat, a chicken and a worm.
There is something missing, a thing cant just magically become other things without any explanation of the transformation.
>>
>>17083716
Yet, I didn't see you complain when electrons and positrons turned into photons. Curious.
>>
>>17083718
That is another mindfuck. So matter just go 'puff!'?
What the fuck?
>>
>>17083723
You just don't understand what matter is and that's ok, your opinion on the matter was never relevant or needed.
>>
>>17083734
Admit that you dont understand what the fuck is going on. Fucking pretentious jackasses putting 'dark' in front of everything they cant explain.
>>
>>17083716
you lost chuddie

>>17083716
To me is much weirder how quarks randomly "decide" to emit W bosons to make this happen in the first place
>>
>>17083796
It is amazing how little we know but still physicists like to pretend that they know almost everything.

>>17083734
Mater made him for a part of itself to work. So he is relevant and needed to work correctly for us.

yeah crazy right?

Also an atomic nucleus can capture an inner-shell electron and turn a proton into a neutron and electron neutrino. Neutrinos is when everyone looses their minds.
>>
>>17083723
The particles are quantised waves in quantum field theory. The antiparticle is like the particle except oscillating in the other direction temporally. The two waves destructively interfere and the energy becomes the photons.
Alternatively, think of the antiparticle as the particle going backwards in time and the annihilation is the particle turning around in time.
>>
but there is an explanation, that's what the theory is for
>>
>>17083716
The mechanism is explained. Look up isospin, hypercharge and conservation laws. Dirac spinors can predict the exact rate at which this occurs.

>>17085236
And how come these waves have mass and are subjected to gravity?
>>
>>17085445
they asked nicely

>>17083718
don't electrons actually birth photons? preggo electrons is pretty wild
>>
anyone can explain how exactly do electrons manufacture photons? I'd really like to know this. seems weird as fuck.
also can free electrons do this shit?
>>
>>17085704
they shake the EM field so hard bits of it fly off

Anon, why do you believe subatomic particles should behave like a banana?
You and pic related are not significatively different.

Photoelectric effect, compton scattering, etc.
>>
>>17083716
There is a non-zero chance of a dog turning into a cat, a chicken and a worm.
>>
>>17085943
You dont have a clue either of how this works.
>>
>>17083716
there is an explanation, the beta decay
>>
>>17083716
It's all just energy, bruh.
Matter is merely a localized high density configuration of it.
>>
>>17085704
Bremsstrahlung (aka braking radiation).
It's the basic principle of how all radio technology works and I'm always shocked that something so fundamental isn't part of basic science education.
>>
>>17085704
Bhabha scattering. When the sister and the brother go at it too hard bhabha punishes them by grounding them and emitting photons in anger.
>>
>>17087693
listen, I understand "electrons spit out photons", for a long ass time. that is not the issue here. rather the details. like when you came out of your mom's cunt, there's a bunch of details around it. but all I know about photons is they come out of electron's cunt. that's it. no other details. like how exactly does that happen, planck-second by planck-second, how does the extra energy in the electron actually physically becomes a photon, that's what I wanted to know, and what I find really weird.
>>
>>17087786
you know how when you rub your dick, it grows in mass? and how when you rub it harder, it expels mass in response? and how it then shrinks back down to its little pinky sausage? that's what electrons do. you rub them together, they expand the surrounding electron field. it gets too big as they continue rubbing each other too hard. it spits out photons then relaxes until the electron field gets excited again. get it yet, c*nt?
>>
>>17083723
The fuck is matter? Everything's just vibrations. Music notes in God's infinite orchestra. Photons were always chords, we just didn't know it yet
>>
>>17087789
you managed to again say nothing about what I'm actually interested in. you must like to read your own posts. smartest people I know often say "I don't know", where brainlets always try to say something about anything
>>
>>17083716
>So you're telling me all I have to do to reach a more stable mass/charge/energy balance is swap one quark in one neutron from down to up?
