I’m goignto try to put my earlier post into english, If there any parts that are still uncertain, just let me know.
Planets are big! To destory one would require a whole lot of energy. You may have heard that we have enough nuclear weapons to blow up the world a few times, this is false. In reality the energy from all our nukes still doesn’t match the energy in a hurricane.
A particle accelerator takes very small pieces of matter, usually things smaller then atoms, or very small atoms, and speeds them up. Everythign has something called charge. Electrons are said to be negativly charged, protons are positively charged. Much like magnets, opposites attract, alikes repel. In a particle accelerator, an opposite charge is “placed in front” of the particle, and a like charge is behind it, this makes the particle move foward at a faster speed. This process is repeated a few trillion times uinitlt he particle is moving just under the speed of light.
An anti particle is simular to a normal particles except all of its qualities are reversed. Charge and a few others that aren’t revelent to this topic. When a particle and an anti particle meet, they annihlate each other. Kinda like what happend when to rival gangs meet. When the two particles are destroyed, pure energy in the form of light is released.
Taus and muons are hyped up versions of normal particles. Think of them as soilders on speed. There bigger, and faster, but they still have the same charge.
Gravity works like this: the more mass you have in an area the more gravity you’ll have. If we destroy some of the planets mass, ther will be less gravity holding it together. Imagine trying to glue together two 4×4’s with a 2nd grader glue stick, then drive the two trucks away from each other. gravity is like the glue stick, more gravity would be like welding the trucks together.
One last thing (I couldn’t figure out where to put this) whent he particels hit a planets its like a shot gun hitting a wall, except the shotgun keep shooting till the wall is less then swiss cheese.
hope this helps.
