Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for January 23, 2019

Sounds fun at first. But when you start getting into quarks, they put a spin on it.

That’s the system I’ve always used to remember them

It sounds like we’re all sharing a bonding experience….

Done on WKRP, years ago…

Not only is this system easy to remember, but it will even lead you to pretty good physics.

In theory, Dr. Mel is stringing Brewster along.

I want to hear more about the Legos.

Does this mean that Switzerland is composed entirely of neutrons?

Close enough for Brewster. Now explain how positive and negative are completely arbitrary terms.

But then along comes a stray high speed neutron and burst into the party. That’s when trouble begins with a big bang.

And in antimatter the proton is negative, electron is positive and the neutron is neutral. Antiproton, positron & neutron.

Atomic emojis!

Fun? I’ve never heard it called that before. OTOH his mental picture looks like the typical nuclear family so carry on.

Makes you wonder how many quirks there are in quarks…
