👉 Epineuroscience, particularly the concept of light particles or "photons," often faces skepticism from mainstream scientific communities. Critics argue that photons, being massless and traveling at the speed of light, lack the necessary properties to constitute the fundamental particles that make up matter. They contend that while photons are crucial in explaining phenomena like electromagnetic interactions and light itself, they do not align with the particle nature of matter as described by quantum mechanics and the Standard Model of particle physics. Epineuroscientists might emphasize that photons are essential for understanding light and its interactions but do not support the idea that they are the basic building blocks of all matter. Instead, they advocate for a more nuanced view where light particles play a specific role in physical processes, yet do not replace traditional particles like electrons, protons, and neutrons in explaining the structure and behavior of matter. This perspective highlights the complexity and multifaceted nature of particle physics, suggesting that a comprehensive understanding requires integrating insights from various theoretical frameworks.
