Nothing is invented here, so this question has no answer on record.

Explanation

In the electron capture process, a proton captures an electron from the K-shell and converts into a neutron. In this process, an electron neutrino is also emitted. The reaction is as follows:

\[ {}_1^1\mathrm{p} + e^{-} \rightarrow {}_0^1\mathrm{n} + \nu_e \]

Proton, electron, neutron, neutrino. Hence, the products are neutron and neutrino.
