    Can Mass Be Transformed into Energy Without Antimatter?

    What about in high energy collisions? When two protons collide, the energy required to break apart the bonds between quarks (color force) is less than the energy required to produce quark-antiquark pairs, so you get a bunch of particles with very short lives coming out of the collision but...
