The electron antiparticle, with the same mass and spin and opposite electric charge.
wp-physics-positronnlab-positronpdg-rppnist-codataEach relation below ends at this concept.
This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
The positron is the electron antiparticle.
The target is a member or subtype of the broader source class.

Beta-plus decay produces a positron and an electron neutrino while converting a proton to a neutron within a nucleus.
A physical process transforms the source into, or produces, the target under the conditions stated in the edge detail.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Curvature and ionization identified a particle with electron mass and opposite charge.
The source theory, law, entity, prediction, or structural claim is directly tested, supported, constrained, or established by the target experiment or observation. Experimental support is not final logical proof; the edge detail states exactly what was measured.
