Does an Emitting Particle Contain the Emitted Particle?
« on: 02/05/2022 13:39:06 »
This ref. says yes (at timestep 10:30):


for alpha particles emitted by a nucleus. So why won't it apply to other particles as well?

An atomic nucleus is a conglomerate of many particles. Some particles, like baryons, are composed of simpler particles called quarks. As far as experiments can currently tell, however, other particles like electrons aren't made up of anything simpler.

The ref. says there is a Coulomb potential barrier for an Alpha particle emitted by a Polonium nucleus. What potential barrier? There is only repelling force.

Back on topic: in my model there is no reason why an electron cannot contain a photon.

Let's not forget that you do not have a model.
I also thought all of your musing on particles were supposed to be posted in the thread you already have about this stuff.

Your model is wrong.
We already know that

Why would it, though?
