i heard that neutrino isn't made of quarks, it almost has no mass but it has a anti matter. what is the difference between a neutrino and its anti particle? what parity is?
thanks in advance

i already said that neutrinos aren't made up of quarks, so?ZapperZ said:You seem to be missing the bigger picture here.
Anti-neutrino is a lepton. Lepton is a family that includes electrons, muons, taus, their neutrinos, and their anti-neutrinos. NONE of them are made up of quarks!
Zz.
Antimatter is a classification for particles which have the opposite quantum numbers (like charge, lepton number, baryon number etc) to particles we commonly found in real life (electrons, protons etc).En_lizard said:i guess there's no answer for my question and they just know about anti mattters from reactions.
Yes, antimatter isn't naturally occurring in large amounts. Pretty sophisticated machinery is needed to make antimatter, and you have to actually turn energy into the antimatter. It's like saying hydrogen fuel cells are an excellent power source. They are a storage method, because you make the hydrogen from methane or using electricity to split water. Antimatter has the largest useful energy density you could possibly have because you can use [tex]E=mc^{2}[/tex] to get all the energy locked up in it's mass. Petrol uses chemical energy, and losses only a tiny fraction of a percent of it's mass when you burn it.En_lizard said:another one:
do we need to spend energy for making antimatter? and i heard that antimatter is the most powerful energy source to man? how it increases energy?

do we have anti photons?ZapperZ said:No, my response was more in curiosity on why you "picked" on just neutrino specifically. If it's a criteria that it isn't made up of quarks, then you left out a bunch of other particles. If it's a criteria based on "no mass and no quark", then photons get left out.

do we have anti photons?
i'd answered ur question. i didnt and still don't know if photon has anti particle, so that's the reason i picked up neutrino since it's the only chargeless massless particle with anti particle. but it seems it's you who choose to not answer me.ZapperZ said:Obviously, you chose to not answer my querry. Oh well...

Neutrinos are subatomic particles that have no electric charge and very little mass. They are produced in nuclear reactions and can travel at almost the speed of light. Anti-particles are the mirror image of particles, with the same mass and opposite charge.
The main difference between neutrinos and anti-particles is their charge. Neutrinos have no charge, whereas anti-particles have the opposite charge of their corresponding particles. Additionally, neutrinos have a very small mass compared to anti-particles.
Neutrinos are created in nuclear reactions, such as those that occur in the cores of stars. They can also be created in particle accelerators. Anti-particles are created when high-energy particles collide, producing matter and its corresponding anti-matter.
Studying neutrinos and anti-particles can help us better understand the fundamental building blocks of the universe and how they interact with each other. It can also provide insight into the origins of the universe and the processes that govern it.
Neutrinos and anti-particles have been used in medical imaging and cancer treatment. They are also being studied for potential use in nuclear fusion, as they could potentially provide a nearly limitless source of energy.
