Re: Matter is always in motion

Particles don't really exist in locations; they are the result of us interacting with mathematical wave functions by doing things that extract information (taking measurements). A wave function has units roughly describable as "square-root of probability density". The closest we experience to them in what we term "reality" is a magnetic field (except there's no magnet).

Although it's fun to try, there is no description of Physics outside of Mathematics because subatomic stuff just doesn't function in a way that we are used to experiencing. I'm not kidding when I say the mathematics of physics is *easier* to understand than the experimental results.

So if what you are writing is correct, by not writing it in formal mathematics you are actually making it harder to understand.
