{Quantum Muddle [continued(5)]}[7th August 1983]

[Redbook2:299][19830807:0900]{Quantum Muddle [continued(5)]}[7th August 1983]

19830807.0900

I have read a little further*, and it seems that I may have been incorrect in thinking that mathematics or science denies the potential validity of an event which science cannot experimentally verify: one of the problems seems to be that an individual electron can be recorded but not predicted; the other is that its position and its momentum cannot both be established at once (that is an older problem, surely: analogous to calculus?). All I can say is that the presentation in English is ambiguous. However, the argument on the previous pages** is still interesting, although it needs reorganising. It has by now been so much amended that it may not represent anything very much.


*[Presumably as in [Redbook2:296-297][19830806:2330b]{Quantum Muddle}[6th August 1983], first footnote]

**[Presumably the last four previous entries above.]
