Here we hypothesise that photons, rather than being absorbed, are captured by particles, conserving their integrity while remaining undetected. Therefrom, an annihilation-free chemical model of leptons, hadrons and gauge bosons is conjectured by introducing concealed photons. Our model conserves and reorganises _indestructible_ coloured subparticles across subatomic reactions. Clues to weak interaction asymmetry naturally emerge from the chemical model. Antimatter particles appear to be more complex than matter particles, possibly suggesting why the former are scarce in the universe. The conservation laws of the standard model are satisfied, and its symmetries investigated. Experiments to verify the existence of overlooked photons are proposed. Confirmation of our theory would convey the principles of chemistry into the world of subatomic particles and reveal a profound unity among all particles.Read More
