| Weak Interaction Information1 #722499 The weak interaction is responsible for part of the decay of radioactive nuclei and occurs only within an atomic nucleus. It a major role in the energy production processes taking place in the centre of stars, including the Sun. The bosons carrying the weak force are called Z0 and W. Their are massive, which explains why the range of the interaction is small and also why producing and studying them requires high energy accelerators. |
