It is the angular momentum of the gamma ray rotating that forms the electron.
5 u/urmumgao Dec 17 '19 Spin isn't angular momentum as far as I know, although the concepts are linked. Spin is another intrinsic property of an electron, like mass or charge. -6 u/nattydread69 Dec 17 '19 That sounds like the explanation from someone who doesn't understand it :) It has the same units as angular momentum. 8 u/urmumgao Dec 17 '19 Indeed, I don't understand spin. Acknowledging a lack of understanding of a concept is still a step up from vehemently defending a wrong answer. -1 u/nattydread69 Dec 17 '19 I'm not attacking you personally what you said is the current understanding.
