Standard Model Instability

It seems that in the standard model, the deuteron is not completely stable, but rather very long lived. t'Hooft writes at the bottom of page 3 "Thus, because of the Cabibbo rotation, a proton and a neutron (two baryons equal six quarks) may annihilate to form two antileptons, one of electron and one of muon type. The factors exp(- 16pi /g^2) = exp(- 4pi * 137 * sin theta_W)"^[1] This calculation is elaborated here: https://physics.stackexchange.com/a/288913/10991 to conclude a lifetime of 10^180 seconds.

That section contains also data concerning atomic deuterium, and deuterium combined with other elements, such as HDO . This seems to contradict the heading of the section. Ekisbares (talk) 08:59, 17 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

See the article, "Isotopes of hydrogen". In it, the section, "Hydrogen-2 (deuterium)", doesn't cite any sources. Please add some sources there. Solomonfromfinland (talk) 16:30, 13 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
