So, according to basic Ant-Man theory, if I were hit by one of these, it should be like getting all that (10% of a) ping pong ball energy concentrated in a tiny spot, causing me to fly backwards across the room?
- BobaFloutist 2y agoI would expect it to be more likely to punch through skin than to actually propel you. But also neutrinos don't typically collide with things very easily, they're more likely to pass through you without you ever knowing.
- moffkalast 2y agoYeah there's no way it would be able to grip onto anything, probably more like the Bugorski case, where he stuck his head into a particle accelerator and a proton beam went right through his head.
- Aachen 2y agoI was thinking the same though. It doesn't interact often, but if it randomly does annihilate with another particle in your body, at such a small scale (subatomic) that force/pressure just destroys anything in its path no? Like a paint flake hitting a space ship. Or is it more like "light" (since they're iirc their own antiparticle), which is then absorbed by surrounding matter and turns into heat? In the wrong spot, this sounds to me like it kills you? Nothing to be afraid of, of course, for the reason you mentioned. Just wondering, xkcd "what if" style
- parineum 2y agoIsn't Ant-Man logic that he still has the same mass when he shrinks and, as such, can generate the same force? Unless you get thrown back by ping pong balls normally, I think you'd be fine.
- class700 2y agoAnd yet when he grows he still has enough strength to punch a leviathan out of the sky. I'm not sure there's such thing as ant man logic - It doesn't seem like it should result in strength both ways.
