3.5 The Structure of Particles

This section describes the structure of particles as regions of the continuum where energy density is many orders of magnitude greater than that of the background level. The high energy density in these regions is prevented from diffusing away by discontinuity of the continuum near the center of the particle. This serves to induce high energy density surrounding this core zone, as well as preventing it from diffusing. The nature of this discontinuity of curvature is of unique size and shape, and is the basis of all quantum effects at the atomic level.
