Proton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (720 words) |
 | Protons may be transmuted into neutrons by inverse beta decay (that is, by capturing an electron); since neutrons are heavier than protons, this process does not occur spontaneously but only when energy is supplied. |
| Protons and neutrons are both nucleons, which may be bound by the nuclear force into atomic nuclei. |
| The number of protons in the nucleus determines the chemical properties of the atom and which chemical element it is. |
| Proton (company) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (944 words) |
| By 2002 Proton held a market share of over 60 per cent in Malaysia, which was reduced to barely 30 percent by 2005 and is expected to reduce further in 2008 when AFTA mandates reduce import tariffs to a maximum of 5%. |
| Proton exports cars to the United Kingdom and Australia and the company is aggressively marketing its cars in several other countries including the Middle East. |
| Proton began its exports with countries where (as in Malaysia) drivers use the left side of the road like New Zealand in the late 1980s, but its success was mostly limited to the United Kingdom where it entered the market in 1989. |
