Because logic excludes that protons and neutrons have an outer layer to hold quarks together, there must by definition be a structural relationship between the quarks themselves to avoid jeopardizing the stability of the nucleus. To substantiate this, it is necessary to move away from the beaten track in an attempt to better understand the functioning of the nucleus and the atom as a whole.
The structure of the nucleus of the atom has been re-mapped and spatially rearrangedand, in its simplicity, explains completely the inner workings of that atomic nucleus. It became immediately clear that it was only a small glimpse into a whole new world that has remained hidden so far and undoubtedly will open new fields of research in both physics and chemistry.
The test of the validity of the reasoning behind the new way to approach the atomic nuclei and quarks is reinforced by explaining in detail the various decay modes of the atomic nuclei.
Alpha decay, Beta plus decay, Beta minus decay, electron capture and nuclear fission are presented with detailed examples based on the new composition of the atomic nucleus. Although it seems rather technical at first, it is in reality a very elegant and easy-to-understand way how the mechanism of transformation of the structures of the atomic nucleus works.
The current accepted theories that explain mass distribution of fission fragments through the liquid drop model, the shell model or the so-called unified model that brings the shell model and the liquid drop model together to explain certain magnetic and electric properties that neither of the two separately can explain, have been re-evaluated resulting in a logical and better diagnostic picture of the entire process.
