proto-photon
Where it comes from
From proto- + photon.
noun proto-photons
- A theoretical but not yet detected particle proposed to explain, among other things, the mechanisms of gravity; a gauge boson. Since the proto-photon has no charge, it does not seem likely that we could detect such "orbital" motion for the electron-photon system.
