SLOW PROTONS. “In vacuum, when free electrons are present, a sufficiently slow proton may pick up a single free electron, becoming a neutral hydrogen atom, which is chemically a free radical. Such "free hydrogen atoms" tend to react chemically with many other types of atoms at sufficiently low energies.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton View in LinkedIn

There is something extraordinary about the simplicity of the traditional Spanish tiled roof which was invented by the Romans and has remained unchanged since. View in LinkedIn

SLAVE TO NON-LINEARITY. “ Bateson claims that humanity will never be able to control the whole system because it does not operate in a linear fashion, and if humanity creates his own rules for the system, he opens himself up to becoming a slave to the self-made system due to the non-linear nature of cybernetics.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cybernetics View in LinkedIn

FAR FROM SIMPLE PROTON. “Experiments that measure the distributions of quarks as a function of the fractional momentum (x) of the proton that these quarks carry have revealed a rich structure with additional quarks, antimatter quarks (antiquarks) and gluons, beyond the minimal three-quark Fock state.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-03282-z View in LinkedIn

OLD SIMPLE PROTON MODEL. “The original quark model, in which the proton consists of two up quarks (u) and one down (d) quark, has an appealing simplicity.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-03282-z View in LinkedIn

THE PROTON. “The structure of the proton is a prototypical example of a strongly coupled and correlated system with quarks and gluons interacting according to quantum chromodynamics (QCD). At large energy and momentum scales, the interaction is relatively weak, whereas at lower energy scales the picture is clouded by the increasingly strong interaction.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-03282-z View in LinkedIn

MATTER ASYMMETRY. “These results are expected to revive interest in several proposed mechanisms for the origin of this antimatter asymmetry in the proton that had been disfavoured by previous results, and point to future measurements that can distinguish between these mechanisms.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-03282-z View in LinkedIn

ACTUAL QUARK ANTI-QUARK PAIRS. “Here we provide evidence from muon pair production measurements that these distributions are considerably different, with more abundant down antimatter quarks than up antimatter quarks over a wide range of momenta.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-03282-z View in LinkedIn

ASSUMED QUARK ANTI-QUARK PAIRS. “In this picture of quark–antiquark creation by the strong force, the probability distributions as a function of momentum for the presence of up and down antimatter quarks should be nearly identical, given that their masses are very similar and small compared to the mass of the proton.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-03282-z View in LinkedIn
