This suggests-- as do many other considerations-- that the fundamental entities in quantum theory are the transition amplitudes, and that states should be taken in the c.g.s. system (cum gr ...

We know the theoretical interpretation of the reduced width γ: it is the value of a wave function at the boundary, and we should have been able to guess what the distribution of such a quantity is. However, none of us were courageous enough to ...
