Infinite Photons: U Mad Physicists?

Infinite Photons: U Mad Physicists?
MUAHAHA! It's the quantum particle troll physics at its finest! 🤪 This delightfully crude rage comic illustrates the bizarre loop of pair production and annihilation. A high-energy photon hits a nucleus and *POOF* creates an electron-positron pair. These oppositely charged particles then get pulled together like awkward teenagers at a school dance, and when they collide—BOOM!—they annihilate each other, creating two new photons! And the cycle continues... INFINITE PHOTONS! The universe is basically running an eternal particle prank, and physicists are just standing there with their jaws dropped. Conservation of energy? More like conservation of cosmic trolling! The Standard Model never saw it coming!

I Should Be Doing My Homework
Ever procrastinated on homework by thinking about particle physics? That's the energy here! 🤓 When a positron (antimatter electron with positive charge) meets an electron (negative charge), they don't just high-five and walk away. Nope! They annihilate each other in a spectacular subatomic farewell party, converting their mass into pure energy - specifically two gamma photons of electromagnetic radiation! It's basically the particle physics version of "I brought guacamole" + "I brought chips" = instant party destruction. The universe's way of saying "when opposites attract, things get EXPLOSIVE!"
