Physicists have long-suspected that the building blocks of protons experienced quantum entanglement. Now, researchers have ...

Since the electron has a large magnetic moment, this state will contribute considerably to the magnetic moment of the proton. Since, however, the β-decay constant is exceedingly small in nuclear ...

The proton remains inside the nucleus, but the electron is ejected at high speed. This is called beta decay. Beta decay causes the atomic number of the nucleus to increase by one (because there is ...

Beta decay involves the conversion of a down quark to an up quark. This changes a neutron into a proton plus an electron. The proton stays in the nucleus and the electron leaves the atom with high ...

those that have blown up and collapsed into black holes and neutron stars, or have withered into white dwarfs. Energy in this era is generated through proton decay and particle annihilation.
