Yes, why the value of C? Why not some other big number like a
6.02X10^23 or 5 or 3C or some random number?

Strangely, it is exactly C - always C, never anything else. What on
earth does that have to do with matter?

I can easily explain what C is doing there. When positron/electron
collide, the accelerate to C, the maximum universal speed limit. That
is why C appears in E=MC^2. It is just part of the newtonian kinetic
energy formula KE=1/2Mv^2 where v = C.

Now you can be like Tom and claim "duh, we'll never know", but that is
a cop out.

That is a very legitimate question and I will admit that while it is
crystal clear how an individual e+/e- reaction produces an apparent
100% mass defect, it is less clear when dealing with partial loses due
to atomic nucleus formation where only a small fraction of mass is
lost but still in accordance with E=Mc^2.

This is an area of active research for me, and to explain this, one
must first understand the mass mechanism. Somewhat similar to the
Higgs field, my poselectrons form an a dipole sea. It is the
attraction of these dipoles to ordinary matter which defines how much
mass an object has. Objects which are elecrostatically sticker or
simply larger, have greater mass as it takes more energy to push an
object thorough the poelectron sea.

Given this model, one might expect that if you have a combination of
positrons/neutrons and electrons (as with ordinary atoms) that the
mass may be somewhat dependent upon the actual physical structure
whereby some shielding effects may occur causing larger atoms to
appear to have somewhat less mass than smaller atoms (different
shielding effect). I currently have not worked out a formula which
shows that the mass defect due to this phenomenon will also exactly
equal E=Mc^2, but that's not to say it is impossible. In principle,
one should be able to work this out using the known properties of
electrons/protons/neutrons and positrons and electrons. In the
process, it should predict for the first time from first principles,
the mass of electrons/protons and neutrons and whole atoms.

Obviously I havent' gotten there yet, but in principle it could be
done and be either confirmed or refuted - unlike most cranks, this
model should be testable and refutable. In the end I think we will
find that mass always has a dependence upon kinetic energy of an
object moving at C and this will end up being the ultimate reason why
E=mc^2 holds true for all mass defect.

That's correct. But some quantities are conserved in nature and others
are not, a result that is obtained by *observation*. In observation,
for example, kinetic energy is not a conserved quantity. In
observation, the quantity mv^3 is not a conserved quantity. In
observation, mass is not a conserved quantity, either.

That's correct.

There is no law of conservation of mass.

And, no, this does not violate the law of conservation of energy,
either. The law of conservation of energy has to include the
contributions from all energy terms: translational kinetic energy,
rest energy, rotational kinetic energy, potential energy,
configuration energy and so on. No single term is conserved on its
own, but the sum is. This is basic freshman physics.

That is factually incorrect. You may want to look up cold neutron

That is also factually incorrect. There are and have been fairly small
neutrino detectors in neutrino beamlines at BNL, FNAL, and CERN. You
need to read up more.

That is *also* factually incorrect.

This is the reason, Franklin, why I think it is incredibly important
for you to learn more about particle physics, especially experimental
particle physics, before you start designing your own experiments,
which you have done so far on the basis of lack of information and
misinformation.

No, that is incorrect, Franklin. If it had been the result of a
neutral particle being split apart, then there would be many more
experimental signatures to be checked. For example, one would
reconstruct the mass of the decaying particle by measuring the momenta
of the daughter particles, and there would be a resonance in the mass
distribution. There would be a reconstructed spin, parity, and other
quantum numbers, also based on measurements of the daughter product.
You see, there is much more involved in identifying that the daughter
particles come from a decaying parent particle than you perhaps
thought.

Why? Calculations are in order here. Neutrinos interact via the weak
interaction only, which has a characteristic strength, which allows
you to calculate rates not only for reactions involving neutrinos but
other weak interactions as well.

Your poselectron would interact via the electromagnetic interaction,
which has a fundamentally different interaction strength.

Actually, the first neutrino detection experiments were exactly that:
a neutrino detector placed right next to a neutrino source like a
nuclear reactor. You may want to look this up before proposing
something that's been done decades ago.

The neutral here could well be a photon or a Z (or other particles).
