Difference between Air shower (physics) and Pair production

Air shower (physics) vs. Pair production

An air shower is an extensive (many kilometres wide) cascade of ionized particles and electromagnetic radiation produced in the atmosphere when a primary cosmic ray (i.e. one of extraterrestrial origin) enters the atmosphere. Pair production is the creation of an elementary particle and its antiparticle from a neutral boson.

Similarities between Air shower (physics) and Pair production

Air shower (physics) and Pair production have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Antiproton, Electron, Muon, Photon, Positron, Proton, Speed of light.

Antiproton

The antiproton,, (pronounced p-bar) is the antiparticle of the proton.

Muon

The muon (from the Greek letter mu (μ) used to represent it) is an elementary particle similar to the electron, with an electric charge of −1 e and a spin of 1/2, but with a much greater mass.
