I suppose you could avoid this by simply not carrying the analogy so far - that is, saying that these particles cannot annihilate one another (and so don't obey particle conservation laws). | |
| Nov 19, 2014 at 18:13 | comment | added | Crabgor | If so, the energy could just dive into a bunch of low- or high-energy photons, thereby not creating a blinding flash afterwards, yes? | |
| Nov 19, 2014 at 17:30 | comment | added | Crabgor | With respect to the edits, the energy is then released (in some form or another, is there a rule to this or can it be anything?) when the quark-antiquark pairs recombine? Just so I know if I'm understanding fully. | |

| Nov 18, 2014 at 22:23 | comment | added | Crabgor | I did look up dark matter/energy during my research, and tossed it away. This is altogether different, and a very interesting take on things. I am also operating on the assumption that dark matter doesn't BLOCK light either, though I don't recall ever seeing that shown anywhere. Is that completely incorrect? | |
