Explosive Z Pinch

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-11-11 v2

Abstract

We propose an explanation for the recently observed powerful contained explosion in a Z pinch experiment performed at Sandia National Laboratories. Our arguments are based on the assumption that a pure SU(2) Yang-Mills theory of scale 0.5\sim 0.5 MeV is responsible for the emergence of the electron and its neutrino.
