But the repulsion would be finite, which was my point. In fact any shape object with evenly spread charge on its surface would have a finite repulsive force, and hence could hold together, so Coulomb's law doesn't mandate point particles after all. > > > As to your last question, the answer is simple. > I'm sure it is, but this isn't it: > > > Tronnies combine to make three things: electrons (three tronnies), > positrons (three tronnies) and entrons (two tronnies).

You said T-theory explains the apparent imbalance between electrons and positrons, I pointed out that it also needs to explain the imbalance between electrons and protons - if you're right, you've explained a *numerical *asymmetry, but there is still an *organisational* asymmetry that is unexplained. That is, why aren't there an equal number of positrons and antiprotons as there are electrons and protons? Do you see the problem? Without an explanation for why that asymmetry exists (as opposed to merely explaining how the particles that exist are put together) you haven't got any further than the physicists who are baffled by the imbalance of electrons and positrons, because you have an (at least) equally baffling imbalance. (I say at least equally baffling because ISTM that symmetry breaking at the more fundamental level of electrons and quarks should be easier to explain than at the higher level of how the components organise themselves into non-fundamental particles.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
