Meaning
The weak nuclear interaction is the mechanism governing how hadrons and leptons affect one another.
About The Weak Nuclear Interaction
- The weak nuclear interaction is one of the 4 fundamental forces governing the interaction between subatomic particless.
- The weak nuclear interaction causes the decay of particles into other, more stable, subatomic particless.
- The weak nuclear interaction can allow neutrons to decay into protons.
- The weak nuclear interaction is mediated by the W-boson and Z-boson.
- The effective range of the weak nuclear interaction is smaller than the diameter of a proton.
