Elementary is a very good place to start. In your theory what is the half life of proton pairs (di-protons)? The reason I ask is because the last time I checked, di-protons were so short-lived (if they exist at all) that they don't have a published half life.

*** In my theory there is no difference between protons and neutrons: if here are in fact nuclear 'particles' that carry no charge as the neutron is held to be then my theory will interpret neutrons as hydrogen atoms, the orbiting electrons being responsible for the 'neutralizing' of its charge.
It therefore follows that
deuterium, comprising a proton + neutron nucleus, is the di-protons of which you speak.
Having said this I will elaborate by saying that no amount of nuclear particles [ie protons] would be safe without the protection of an electron cloud: bombardment by or interaction with other particles in the air will soon lead either to their demise or to their transformation into atoms of some element. So indeed radioactive decay of a nuclear particle is affected by its exposure to the environment which will result in "proton pairs" either decaying or becoming deuterium.
