In the section on mass and gravity, we discussed how differences in the complexity of the superposition of relation sets provide direction for change, with developments nearly always following the path of the most probable. However, amidst countless changes, the improbable occasionally occurs. Such an unlikely event must be compensated by enhanced probability elsewhere in the system, creating potential energy. In terms of relation physics, potential energy can be captured in complexity: in matter and its counterpart, antimatter.<\/p>\n
A noteworthy example of an improbable event is the creation of antimatter. Upon creation, antimatter is balanced by an equal amount of matter. This improbable event costs energy, which is later released upon the annihilation of matter and antimatter. We’re talking about an energy debt. The relation E=mc\u00b2 is also applicable in this context.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s compare the entropy of developments at the quantum level to the flow of a mountain stream. On average, everything moves downhill. But every now and then, the unlikely happens, and a droplet jumps upward. This improbable development requires energy. The energy extracted from the system and added to the droplet as potential energy is released again when the droplet falls back down. So, a droplet bouncing upwards from a mountain stream serves as a metaphor for potential energy temporarily stored as mass (= complexity) of created matter and antimatter.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
In Feynman diagrams, antimatter is represented as matter moving backward in time. That something can be described as antimatter is due to the perspective. Using Feynman diagrams (see the section on Feynman diagrams 6.13), we can observe that changing orientation doesn’t lead to substantial changes except for the interchange of different spatial dimensions (x-, y-, or z-axis) or time. A positron is the same as an electron when viewed from a different direction. In our world where (almost) everything is matter, developments tend toward the most probable direction. We only know one perspective. When a small part briefly moves in the opposite direction – the improbable direction – we call it antimatter. However, a positron absorbs or emits a photon in precisely the same way as an electron. If we were to momentarily turn the universe inside out, the antimatter would follow the path of probability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":875,"menu_order":12,"template":"","class_list":["post-956","book-2","type-book-2","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/superentropy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/book-2\/956","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/superentropy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/book-2"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/superentropy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/book-2"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/superentropy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/book-2\/956\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/superentropy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/book-2\/875"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/superentropy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=956"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
