      Not sure exactly but neutrons are* a proton and an electron getting intimate with each other so yes? Not decay, what you’re describing would be separating DARK MATTER in this stupid unproven head-theory I wrote out.

      In the real world only cosmic rays smashing particles in space like nature’s particle accelerator can produce anti-protons

      *Obviously the star because hadrons are way more complicated than that

        No, neutrons are normal particles in their own right, just with net zero charge.
