Nuclear Physics

Nuclear physics is the field of physics that studies the constituents and interactions of atomic nuclei. In the scope of this game, is also covers Particle physics, wich is a branch of this science that specializes in the subatomic particles that make up nuclei; and Atomic physics, wich studies electrons. An atomic nuclei is any type of particle that is make up of smaller particles. If this nuclei can undergo fusion, it is called a fusor.

Forces

Assuming that all options are enabled; there are 3 types of forces in Powder Toy. Altought not directly related to nuclear physics or particles; they provide the essential framework in wich nuclear processes can happen.

Gravitational Force

Thermal Energy

Air Pressure

Subatomic Particles

These are the basic constituents of atomic nuclei. All subatomic particles are subject to decay except when they are in their bonded form.

PHOT Photons (γ)

The photon is the basic quanta of light emission. It is created with an initial temperature of 922 degrees with a set speed, the speed of light (? pixels per frame) in any of 8 clear directions. All light is emitted in clear lines in an easily recognizable "union jack" like pattern. It's wavelength at creation is entire, and the color will be white. Some matter can change the wavelength of the photon upon it bouncing off it to it's own spectral lines, allowing the visibility of colors and spectrography. It has no electric charge but can be used to generate photo-electricity with silicons.

NEUT Neutrons (n)

They are the quanta of nuclear force and represent half the composition of hydrogen. They are emitted with a variable temperature, wich varies from room temperature to off-scale. Their movement creates air pressure; wich is an important part in nuclear processes. Neutrons are emitted, unlike light, in a isotropically random pattern.

ELEC Electrons (e)

Electrons are much more similar to neutrons than to photons. They are the carrier of electrical force and can travel through conductive matter to be usable as electricity. They represent the other half, with neutrons, of the composition of hydrogen. They are emitted isotropically with a temperature of 222 degrees.
