"By emitting an electrically charged W boson, the weak force changes the flavor of a quark, which causes a proton to change into a neutron, or vice versa"...."The mass of a neutron is slightly greater than the mass of a proton"....."Bosons carry energy." ....Then how does the release of this energy form more mass in this particular circumstance?....thx.....

Protons can't transform into neutrons spontaneously. You'd have to have some source of extra mass (or energy) in order to allow such a change to take place. One such source could be an election, as in electron capture: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_capture

"Quantum mechanics states that among all the possible energy levels an electron can sit in the presence of a nucleus, there is one, which has THE MINIMAL energy. This energy level is called the ground state. So, even if atoms are in a very very called environment, QM prohibits electrons from falling to the nucleus."
I don't agree......They can temporarily from one upper level to the lower within the levels!..... Prohibition is like saying an electron can be simultaneously in two energy levels! ….I don't agree with statistical mechanics!.....But, that said, which again I'm more than most likely wrong, as usual!....I don't want to get sidetracked here ......My question here, is electron capture actually introduced?....

I don't agree

With what?

.They can temporarily from one upper level to the lower within the levels!

I don't understand this sentence.

Prohibition is like saying an electron can be simultaneously in two energy levels!

I don't see how that follows.

I don't agree with statistical mechanics!

And what does that have to do with anything discussed here?

My question here, is electron capture actually introduced?....

Introduced to what? It seems as though English isn't your first language, and that is making it difficult for me to understand you.

"I don't agree"....I don't agree with an electron being in two energy levels simultaneously upon transition (stat mech, quant mech)….I personally believe that an electron can spiral down in-between levels like an antenna on a temporarily basis....Again, is electron capture actually introduced by physicists?....I don't know?

Well that's too bad, because quantum mechanics is the model currently supported by the evidence.

Again, is electron capture actually introduced by physicists?

Yes.

Yeah...…..once again, I'm way off.....Thx again
