Part 3 explained that a particle’s gender (male for negative charge, female for positive) stands for its rotation direction. This assumes that the particle is staying still while rotating.

Spin is another concept that shows the orientation direction.

Helicity is how the particle moves forward:

  • “Right Handed” means it moves forward with a positive (anticlockwise) rotation
  • “Left Handed” means it moves forward with a negative (clockwise) rotation
Particle Spin and Helicity and Charge
Particle Spin, Helicity, and Charge

While Charge and Spin are relevant to the Radiant Layer, Helicity is relevant to the Convertible.

Charge, Spin, and Helicity are all revealed when the particle is put through an electromagnetic field. This is because the Radiant Layer is superior to the Convertible Layer.

  • A particle can either be right-handed or left-handed
  • Particles of the same charge must have opposite-handed spins while those of different charges can have the same-handed spins per energy level

Helicity determines whether a particle converts or does not convert into different Matter particles.
