View submission: What causes the mutual annihilation of matter-antimatter reactions?
This kind of process is modelled by quantum field theories – or more specifically for the process of electrons and positrons annihilating to photons, quantum electrodynamics.
The idea is that every kind of particle is a different wave of some fundamental fields – photons are waves of the electromagnetic field, electrons and positrons are two "opposite" types of waves in the electron field. Annihilation is a process where these two "opposite" waves collide, and two (or more) other kinds of waves come out.
There's nothing here!
