What happens when two particles come within their Schwarzchild radius?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the concept of Schwarzschild radius and its implications for particles with mass, such as electrons and quarks. Participants assert that while all particles theoretically possess a Schwarzschild radius, this does not classify them as black holes. The conversation highlights that a mass must exceed a specific threshold to become a black hole, and tiny black holes are theorized to evaporate rapidly. The debate also touches on the existence of black holes and the nature of antimatter origins.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Schwarzschild radius and its significance in black hole physics
  • Familiarity with the concept of mass thresholds for black hole formation
  • Knowledge of particle physics, particularly regarding electrons and quarks
  • Awareness of theories surrounding black hole evaporation
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the criteria for black hole formation, focusing on mass thresholds
  • Explore the implications of Schwarzschild radius in quantum mechanics
  • Investigate theories on black hole evaporation and Hawking radiation
  • Study the latest findings on antimatter and its origins in the universe
USEFUL FOR

Physicists, astrophysicists, and students of theoretical physics interested in black hole mechanics, particle physics, and the nature of antimatter.

Correctly speaking all particles having mass should be a black and should have a small but finite swarchild radius,for example the electron,quarks etc are all black holes.
But what would happen if two particles come within their swarzchild radius?

Where did you come by this assertion ?
Whether a mass can become a black hole depends crucially on the mass of the matter, which has to be above a certain limit.

...for example the electron,quarks etc are all black holes.
Very unlikely. Tiny black holes evaporate and explode fairly quickly according to some theories.

Some physicists don't accept that there are any black holes anywhere.

i wasnt speaking of stellar collapse on chandrashekar limit.
what i meant to say that any point like mass should have a swarzchild radius
in the case of electrons it should be infinitely infinitely small
 
Yes, if you calculate the Swarzschild radius of an electron it is very small. But an electron is not a black hole.
 
Maybe you need to find the definition of black hole.

listen up everybody this is unbelivable antimatter origins in space has been discovered
