Part 7 - Selfproof (cont) | SELFPROOF 0703 - MUONS AND TAUONS
CURRENT COSMOLOGY MODEL
Muon
The muon is an elementary particle similar to the electron with unitary negative electric charge of -1 and a spin of
½, but with a much greater mass (105.7 MeV/c²). It is classified as a
lepton, together with the electron (mass 0.511 MeV/c²), the tau (mass
1.777.8 MeV/c²), and three neutrinos. As is the case with other
leptons, the muon is not believed to have any sub-structure;
namely, it is not thought to be composed of any simpler
particles. The muon is an unstable subatomic particle with a mean
lifetime of 2.2 µs. (Wikipedia 26 November 2014)
On Earth, most
naturally occurring muons are created by cosmic rays, which consist
mostly of protons, many arriving from deep space at very high energy.
When a cosmic ray proton impacts atomic nuclei in the upper atmosphere,
pions are created. These decay within a relatively short distance into
muons and muon neutrinos. (Wikipedia 26 November 2014)
The
dominant muon decay mode is the simplest possible: the muon
decays to an electron, an electron antineutrino, and a muon neutrino.
Antimuons, in mirror fashion, most often decay to the corresponding
antiparticles: an antielectron, an electron neutrino and a muon
antineutrino. The mean lifetime of a muon is (2.196 9811 ± 0.000 0022)
µs. The equality of the muon and antimuon lifetimes has been
established to better than one part in 104. (Wikipedia 26 November 2014)
Tauon
The
tauon
is an elementary particle similar to the electron with negative
electric charge and a spin of ½. Together with the electron, the muon
and the three neutrinos, it is classified as a lepton. Like all
elementary particles, the tauon has a corresponding antiparticle of
opposite charge but equal mass and spin. (Wikipedia 27 November 2014)
Tauons have a
lifetime of 2.9×10−13 s and a mass of 1776.82 MeV/c2.
Since their interactions are very similar to those of the electron, a
tauon can be thought of as a much heavier version of the electron. (Wikipedia 27 November 2014)
MALTA COSMOLOGY TEMPLATE
- CONCLUSION
0715 – The chaotic structure of a blackholepair is brought to order
by the constituent blackholes becoming quarks, one axial and other
centrifugal.
- CONCLUSION
0716 – In a multiprocess, the mass of the understable axial quark
decreases and the mass of the overstable blackholepair increases
until the blackholepair stabilises and becomes a stable electron.
COMMENTARY
In
the Current Model, electrons, muons, and tauons are viewed as
varieties of
the same thing. While there are marked differences between them, in their
measures of mass, energy, and lifespan, they are seen
as mechanically the same with the differences being of scale
rather than of fundamentals. They are classed as elementary particles:
that is as particles which
are not made out of anything less substantial.
The
Current
Model see these these particles in this way because
it is devolutionary - no evidence has come to light
suggesting
they should be seen in any other way and no theory/hypothesis
suggesting they could be seen another way has become predominant.
The
Malta
Template is evolutionary. In it, electrons, muons, and tauons are
particles that arise naturally and without forcing from what has come
before. They are composite
particles with each consisting of two subparticles. The
subparticles are quarks with one being axial and the other
centrifugal.
Apart from their different mass and energy measures, the
crucial
difference between the particles is that the electron is stable and
muons/tauons are not. After a predictable period, muons and
tauons decay
into electrons. They do this, inevitably and
unpreventably, because they are not just unstable: they are understable.
Effectively, muons and tauons are not "independent" particles at all but "electrons in waiting" - protoelectrons.
A muon's mass is just over 200
times that of an electron and a tauon's mass is 3500 times. They are
this way because each is created in specific conditions
and from
specific actions - in the same way that a specific amount of wet
concrete in a truck-mixer will make a specific area of road surface. This
extreme massiveness is a factor in their rapid decay - with the decay of
the supermassive tauon being much more impressive than the already
impressive decay of the muon. This same effect can be seen on a larger
scale in that the more massive a star is, the faster and more
impressive is its decay.
To
decay into electrons, muons and tauons must eject prodigious
amounts of
excess mass and energy in an extremely short time. Much of this
excess is ejected via the high pressure jet at the north
pole (above the north pole of the axial quark). The pressure within the
jet is
such that large numbers of adjacent teels are forced together to
become stable teelpairs. Of these stable teelpairs, a smaller
number are forced together to become stable blackholes. Of these
stable blackholes, a smaller number become sufficiently massive to
become photons and neutrinos.The mass of the tauon is such that in some
conditions it can force pairs of blackholes together within its jet to
become pions or electrons.
Exactly
how many pions, electrons, photons, and neutrinos are created during the stabilisation
process is predictable although not exactly so. This decay is
a mechanical process which, given identical conditions, will take a
precise time and deliver precise results. However all conditions are
not identical. Decaying a muon/tauon within a dense and
fast teelstream will take longer than in a teelstream that is
thin and slow because the ejection of mass and energy has to counter that being absorbed from the teelstream. .
The
longer decay takes to complete,
the greater the number of pions, electrons, photons and neutrinos that
will
be produced. In a teelstream sufficiently
fast and dense, muons and tauons may enter a form of stasis
with ejection and absorption balanced and the production of pions,
electrons, photons, and neutrinos being
continuous. In a teelstream with even more density and
speed, muons and tauons may become
so understable that they break apart, with their constituent
quarks decaying to photons, blackholes, and solo teels.
Mention
should be made here of
pions since they have a role in the decay of both muons and
tauons.. Pions are composite particles consisting of a pair of quarks.
They can be charged pions (one axial and one centrifugal quark) or
neutral pions (two centrifugal quarks). There is no such thing as
stable pion. They are understable and rapidly decay into something
else. Charged pions usually decay into muons and muon neutrinos.
Neutral pions usually decay into decay into gamma photons.
Cosmic
electrons formed in the early Universe and it seems likely that muons
and tauons also formed at this time. The difference is that some cosmic
electrons, being stable particles, are possibly still with us while
cosmic muons and cosmic tauons, being understable, cannot be. It is very
likely, given that the extreme teel density in the early Universe would
have inhibited decay, that the lifetimes of cosmic muons and tauons were
longer than they are now but even so the chances of any surviving till today
are probably nil.
| GLOSSARY
- MUON:
(1) An elementary particle in the lepton family having a mass 209
times that of the electron, a negative electric charge, and a mean
lifetime of 2.2 x 10-6
seconds. The muon was originally called the mu-meson and was once
thought to be a meson. (American Heritage Science Dictionary)
(2) Muons are stabilisation particles emitted
by other particles which are understable and attempting to become
stable. Muons are understable. They consist of one axial and one
centrifugal quark. Muons usually decay into an electron plus numbers of
neutrinos and photons.
- PION: (1) A meson occurring either in a neutral form with a mass 264 times that of an electron and a mean lifetime of 8.4 x 10-17
seconds or in a positively or negatively charged for with a mass 273
times that of an electron and a mean lifetime of 2.6 x 10-8
seconds. (American Heritage Science Dictionary)
(2) Pions are stabilisation particles: particles
emitted by other particles which are understable and attempting to
become stable. Pions are understable and come in two forms:
neutral pions and charged pions. Neutral pions consist of a pair
of centrifugal quarks. Neutral pions usually decay into gamma photons.
Charged pions consist of one axial and one centrifugal
quark. Charged pions usually decay into muons and muon
neutrinos.

mass about 3,550 times that of the electron, a negative electric
charge, and a mean lifetime of 3 x 10-13
seconds. (American Heritage Science Dictionary) (2)
Tauons are stabilisation particles emitted by other
particles which are understable and attempting to become stable. Muons
are understable. They consist of one axial and one centrifugal quark.
Muons decay into pions, electrons, neutrinos, and photons.
