Neutrinos May be a Type of Photon

April 27, 2024

NeutrinosThis post suggests that neutrinos are little photons, pure energy, bosons, massless, and travel at the speed of light. They can be considered as tiny, low energy photons.

Background
Neutrinos may be the most abundant particle, more than photons. They make up .3% of the universe. They are said to only interact with gravity and the weak force.

Neutrinos are thought to have mass but I question that.
"Every neutrino wave ever observed moves a speed indistinguishable from the Speed of LIght." Ethan Siegel.
If true then neutrinos are not fermions but bosons like photons.

Every kind of nuclear reaction produces neutrinos. Yet there are so many neutrinos, I think they play a larger role in the universe.

Neutrinos are known as being connected to the weak force.
My suggestion is that the little amount of energy for the process is supplied by neutrinos such that:

Beta minus is where a neutron breaks down into a proton and electron.
The energy supplied by a neutrino.

Electron Capture is where a proton and electron make a neutron.
The energy supplied by a neutrino.

My suggestion is that neutrinos may also be created when virtual particle pairs annihilate; if so then neutrinos could be the cause of dark energy. Though at this point there is no evidence for this.

Should any of my ideas be confirmed, it suggests that we reinvestigate the role of neutrinos.

This also suggests that the short lived, transitional stages of W bosons, may not be needed.

Neutrinos as a type of photon, seems to fit in with other aspects of these physics ideas. Please check out my other posts for more background.

Virtual Particle Energy

April 19, 2024

This is a post about Virtual Particle Energy.

Definition: Virtual Particles are particle and anti particle pairs that pop up out of the vacuum of space and annihilate into energy.

The commonly accepted idea is that this annihilation energy returns to the vacuum from where it came. BUT
What if it stays in the universe?

Concepts such as Conservation of energy, the expansion of the Universe due to Dark Energy, the Casimir effect, and Hawking radiation, all have scientific support. But they also seem to be in conflict.

My suggestion is that when virtual particle pairs pop up out of the vacuum of space, and annihilate, the energy STAYS in the universe.

This energy from virtual particle annihilation, builds up and expands the universe.
This may be the cause of Dark Energy.

This would mean that the energy from virtual particle annihilation does the following:

Suggests a reason for dark energy that is expanding the universe.
Suggests the energy resulting from both the Casimir effect and Hawking radiation, remains in the universe.
Suggests that conservation of energy does not apply on the entire universe.

Further this annihilation process should produce some very tiny boson of massless energy that has no charge and travels the speed of light. Stay tuned for more.

Deuterium and Helium

April 13, 2024

The top diagram shows Deuterium, with one proton, one neutron, and one electron. The neutron is itself a composite of one proton and one electron The bottom diagram shows Helium made up of two Deuteriums.
This supports why Helium is so stable.
