> The authors believe that the modified/strained structure of their material creates a large number of “quantum wells” between particular lead atoms and the adjacent oxygens of the phosphate groups bound to them, in effect making a two-dimensional “electron gas”. They propose that electron tunneling between these quantum wells, which are bet... See more

the wave equation produced results that said that waves actually live in three dimensions—that is, they are particle-like—and these particles could jump between quantum states of energy.
Peter Baksa • The Point of Power
We conclude the following: The electrons arrive in lumps, like particles, and the probability of arrival of these lumps is distributed like the distribution of intensity of a wave. It is in this sense that an electron behaves “sometimes like a particle and sometimes like a wave.”

Neutrino’s Non-Zero Mass:
For a long time, it was believed that neutrinos, subatomic particles produced by the decay of radioactive elements, had no mass. However, the discovery of neutrino oscillation, which was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2015 (jointly to Takaaki Kajita and Arthur B. McDonald), necessitates... See more
