PART VSUB-ATOMIC PARTICLE PHYSICSLepton Particle CharacteristicsLepton family traits are centered on the stable electron. It's stability can be associated with the electromagnetic wave components and its two vector components of opposite sign. Electromagnetism is based upon a high frequency-low frequency segments to act or react to similar or opposite charge of the particle. The wave directional vector is displaced one wavelength with regards to the other and carries the magnitude of the charge. (either positive or negative) Just as it is impossible to generate partial wave components, it isn't credible to have fractional charges. However, there is much more than positve and negative charge characteristics with electrons and positrons. One of the unique aspects of the Circular Model of the Atom is the lanthanide contraction. It occurs when the nucleonic mass increases, while at the same time the atomic radii diminishes. What the Circular Model demonstrates is radii contraction as the additional added nucleon moves closer to the negative dipole. This why platinum's atomic radius is so small in relation to cesium. The location of platinum in the Circular Periodic Model is in the most negative area of the model. Negative fields and particles invoke a constricting effect when they are dominant, whereas positive fields and particles have an expanding and enlarging effect. The same argument can be made with leptons. Particles that start from an electron foundation essentially have buried within, but less dominate a positive wave vector segment. The dominate negative contracting aspect of the Lepton family results in positive and negative particle segments making up the electron. This is why electrons respond to both positive and negative signs. In scattering experiments these have been labeled up and down quarks. |
