I kind of just let my mouse wander where it may and I seem to come upon some interesting materials that might be of interest to those more theoretically inclined... I'd like to think that the universal potentate might be guiding my mouse at times! :-)
I usually try to read the papers in order to get a qualitative understanding, however, much of the QM majic is beyond me! Besides, the only reason why atomic/nuclear physics has to resort to probabilities is because we're dealing with oscillations that are 10^20 to 10^35. At that minute scale and extreme frequencies, all experiments done to date had no hope of discerning the actual oscillatory element (OE)... all that has been done is to capture the OE at various positions at random... kind of like using a very slow strobe-light to illuminate a much faster oscillating object, and the frequency of the strobe-light is not harmonically related to the frequency of oscillation of the object that it is illuminating. Anyone who has used a strobe-light knows what I'm talking about... -Mark
