What Is Weak Iso Spin?
weak ice ospin is the equivalent of, like, electric charge. It's the thing that tells you whether a particle feels the weak force or not. And in analogy, with the other forces, if you have no electric charge, you don't feel electric forces. So these particles and their interactions, they conserve weak iso spin the way the photon conserves electric charge. You can't justli create electric charge ly nilly. In the same way the weak force preserves weak iso spin. If you have it, it's going to stick around. If you don't have it, you cannot create it.
