lightelectron

Lightelectron is a term used in the field of physics to describe a hypothetical particle that is lighter than the electron, the lightest known charged lepton. The concept of a lightelectron arises from theoretical considerations and experimental searches for new particles beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. The Standard Model includes the electron as one of the fundamental particles, and it has been extensively tested and confirmed by numerous experiments. However, there are theoretical frameworks, such as supersymmetry and extra dimensions, that predict the existence of particles with masses lower than that of the electron.

The search for lightelectrons involves various experimental techniques, including precision measurements of atomic and molecular spectra,
