Notation [edit]
Notation: let the symbol Def. indicate that a definition is following.
Notation: let the symbols between [ and ] be replacement for that portion of a quoted text.
Universals [edit]
To help with definitions, their meanings and intents, there is the learning resource theory of definition.
Def. evidence that demonstrates that a concept is possible is called proof of concept.
The proof-of-concept structure consists of
- background,
- procedures,
- findings, and
- interpretation.[2]
The findings demonstrate a statistically systematic change from the status quo or the control group.
Nuclear electrons [edit]
Nuclear electrons apparently may be bound in orbits of nuclear dimensions.[1]
"[A] nucleus [may consist] only of heavy particles - protons and neutrons."[1]
β-ray emission [edit]
"In radiation theory, the total number of light quanta is not constant. Light quanta are created when they are emitted from an atom, and are annihilated when they are absorbed."[1]
By analogy to radiation theory, "The total number of electrons [and neutrinos] is not necessarily constant. Electrons (or neutrinos) can be created or annihilated. This ... is not analogous to the creation or annihilation of an electron-positron pair."[1]
"[E]ach transition from a neutron to a proton is associated with the creation of an electron and a neutrino. The reverse process (change of a proton into a neutron) must be associated with the annihilation of an electron and a neutrino."[1]
β decay [edit]
"A β decay is the process by which a nuclear neutron changes into a proton at the same time as an electron, which is observed as a β ray, and a neutrino are emitted"[1].
