0.14% of W boson is huge uncertainity ...(around 60 Mev) W Boson is as heavy as atom. What is the Electron Mass in MeV? 0.511 MeV The uncertainity is roughly 120 times the mass of an electron.. Electron and Positron can annihilate to yield 1.022 MeV. Another constant which varies very...

We tend to infer that if Energy and Momentum is not conserved then the particle must be virtual.Apparently it is assumed that the identity of particle depends on the conservation of energy and momentum... (not just on momentum)

The article says unambiguous "signs" of were seen.The actual W particle is said to decay in 10^-35 seconds.. I repeat the mass was inferred from the dynamics. It was not seen directly. Actually we know that Virtual Bosons violate the mass energy conservation because the same physical...

There has been no direct evidences of W boson. Its mass is calculated by applying conservation of energy and momentum. When the Energy is not conserved it is called Virtual .. When Energy is conserved it is called real ... Where is proof that real W Boson is actually real and not a special...

That makes it much easier to understand. Generally it is said that Virtual W bosons are Virtual because their Mass is Less Than Actual W Boson when infact this pseudo-Boson never existed... When the Virtual Boson decays into electron and anti-electron neutrino... in a way we can say that the...

Ok. There are mathematical evidences for fractional charges (see Quantum Hall effect) but these pseudo charges... They do not exist for real but they help to solve the equations more efficiently... Based on such "indirect " evidences we can not conclude existence of "Virtual" particles. The...

Thats ok. But can we say that entangled particles entangles the Observers also.

Any discussion based on prior knowledge of entanglement entangles the macroscopic observers... In my example the A and B are entangled using entangled particles... If A is alive B must be in dead state ... and if B is alive then A must be dead. Is this true ?

There are two types of W bosons .. real and virtual. Real ones can be identified. Virtuals can't be identified. However as you say both W are the same.. Virtual W bosons do not exist physically where real ones exist physically. How can we say that there are virtual w bosons?? I am all...

I thought virtual particles are a matter of convenience for the actual physical processes. If something can be achieved using virtual particles then do we need real particles?

I have question. Suppose if two entangled particles are sent to two different people A and B living on different edges of the planet... They have an agreement ... If the spin up is measured the person will shoot himself and his body will be sent to the person alive. Suppose A measures spin...

Is W boson real? If they are not real and do not need to satisfy the energy-momentum conservation then why are they heavy ?

The incident photon interacts with excited atom which means it must loose some of its original properties to do so... I mean how can some thing interact without interacting at all!

How can the emitted photon have the same properties?

Yes how can a photon emit another photon?
