A particle meet its own antiparticle will annihilate and convert mass into energy. But what happen if a particle meets a antiparticle but not its own . For example, proton collided with anti neutron, etc..
A particle is a small unit of matter that cannot be divided any further. It is the building block of everything in the universe, including atoms and subatomic particles.
An antiparticle is the opposite of a particle, with the same mass but opposite charge. For example, the antiparticle of an electron is a positron.
Particles and antiparticles can interact with each other through the process of annihilation, where they collide and their mass is converted into energy in the form of photons. They can also interact through the weak nuclear force and the strong nuclear force.
When a particle and antiparticle meet, they annihilate each other and produce energy in the form of photons. This process is reversible, meaning that energy can also create a particle and antiparticle pair.
Yes, particles and antiparticles can coexist in the universe as long as they do not come into contact with each other. In fact, the universe is thought to contain equal amounts of particles and antiparticles, but they are mostly separated and do not interact.
