In recent years I began to feel that high energy physics experiments might be places where the properties of sub-atomic particles are *forged rather than discovered. With the positron-in-neutron I can now point to a specific experiment to illustrate this feeling.
But what would keep the positron bound to the neutron? Neither electromagnetic nor strong forces would apply. The neutron is electrically neutral and the positron is unaffected by the strong force.
