What I told you about the size of electrons vs atoms is a *measured* result. Let me also tell me that, despite your guess, why electrons don't penetrate is in fact well understood. You just don't know yet what the explanation is. (And so you try to invent something yourself.) Hint: it has nothing to do with how much room there is.

Fascinating. And what do you think is involved in the measurement? And how does the electron know whether it is interacting (for which it needs to be big) or being measured (for which it needs to be small)? And what physically happens when the electron collapses?

Lots of reasons. Fundamental strength of interaction is orders of magnitude different, experimentally. The two kinds of quanta interact with different classes of matter -- there is some matter that interacts via gravity quanta but not with light quanta, for example, and this is experimentally confirmed. The angular momentum of light quanta is 1xPlanck's constant, and that of the gravitational quanta is 2xPlanck's constant. The detection methodology for light quanta and gravitational quanta is fundamentally different, observationally. Light quanta become unified with weak quanta at the 1 TeV scale, and gravitational quanta do not, experimentally. > > Feel free to make stuff up like the future determines the past. > > > > > > > > Electrons are directed/pointed waves which collapse when detected as a > > > > > quantum of mather. > > > > > > So, an electron is actually a disturbance which surrounds the nuclei. > > > > > The pressure associated with a nuclei is due to the aether displaced > > > > > by the nuclei and the aether displaced by the neighboring nuclei, not > > > > > the electron. > > > > > > > > displace: > > > > > > > 1 a : to remove from the usual or proper place > > > > > > > 2 a : to move physically out of position <a floating object displaces > > > > > > > water> > > > > > > > (m-w.com) > > |
