  • Positronium

    Maybe I don't think like mainstream people, or people are happy with simple explanations, then get on with their lives.

    I've often thought about the nature of electricity - that only deals with the negative electrons. They are the ones that do all the work don't they......don't they ?

    By inducing an electrical charge in a wire by a rotating magnet - the electrons move - hopping from one atom shell to another all the way around the circuit. This is how we're taught.

    I have thought differently that it is the atoms constantly in vibration, yet held in their positions by chemical bonds and nuclear forces, that can knock together if a voltage is supplied at one end - the force will travel like a newtons cradel - untill the force emerges at the other end.
    I suggested it is like a pipe of snooker balls.

    I have just read that this is an accepted theory

    But - what of the positively charged particles?

    What if we can strip electrons from an atom - we also release the positron - the electrons' nemesis ?
    Then just as the electron moves around the circuit in one direction, (jumping atoms) the positron moves in the opposite direction - untill they meet and annihilate each other - resulting in a production of heat.

    From research - it seems that there is a moment when the electron and positron are captivated in a spin - and this particle is called a positronium.
    positroniums would consist of an electron and the positron (a particle of equal mass), making Positroniums about a thousand times less massive than hydrogen.

    It only lasts nanoseconds - before exploding (imploding?) - emitting gamma radiation in (in the experiment)

    It is theorised, that 1 miligram of positronium particles - would explode with the force of 25 kilotons of dynamite.

    Would like to hear your views.

    Do you really think the more elaborate the store the more believable the tale?
