polonium halos

2005-12-09 Thread thomas malloy
Vortexians; I assume that the halos are caused by the decay of the radioneuclide in the zirconium crystal. I assume that there are multiple decays. Is the intensity of the halo determined by the number of decays? Is there some way to determine the number of decay events by it's intensity?

This is not very new news. To any motion to which a wave can be associated there can be a combination of incoming and outgoing waves. In science the incoming waves are cancelled with the motive that there aren't any sources to supply this incoming wave. If the bee can not produce enough energy to c
