SUMMARY
The discussion confirms that it is not theoretically possible to create stable helium atoms with combinations of protons, antineutrons, negatrons, positrons, and neutrons. Specifically, protons and antineutrons cannot coexist due to their quark composition leading to annihilation. Additionally, the presence of positrons alongside protons results in repulsion, causing instability. The terms "negatron" and its equivalence to antiprotons are clarified, emphasizing the same annihilation issue as with antineutrons.
