Chaos Theory Quantum Physics

There are many discussions of this question. In Exploring Complexity, Nobel Laureate Ilya Prigogine explains that the complexity of the system is defined by the complexity of the model necessary to effectively predict the behavior of the system. The more the model must look like the actual system to predict sys...

Reactor tests were undertaken leading the reactor to be run at unsafely low reactor levels with operators possessing only a limited understanding of the system they were controlling. This was coupled with a task that made dangerous violations inevitable. Clearly, the governing body should be required t...
