Which language is it writen ? C C++ FORTRAN ?
It originally started with SAS/C on an Amiga. Migrated to C++, did a short trip to Perl for radioactive decay functions, and then pretty much settled on PhP (
php.net) using POV-Ray for graphics and animations (
povray.org).

Is it only numeric or you also have graphic output ?
Mostly numeric, since I am typically dealing with atomic properties that have numeric values. I have done some simulations with animated GIFs thru POV-Ray to flush out ideas.
jacques wrote:
What are the atomic properties you determine ?
Depends on the particle; normally mass, magnetic moments, valence, energy levels and charge.
jacques wrote:
Does it calculate mass and secondary mass ?
Yes, for subatomic systems and combinations.

Is it able to show all the motion transformation during the radioactive decay of U238?
I had a Perl program that simulated radioactive decay based on Larson's description, but it would never match what was in the books. Nehru and I looked at it for a while (this was about 5 years ago), but we were unable to determine why there were major differences. I shelved the research until I could get a better understanding of the atomic model.

CAn I run that on my PC ?
The PhP stuff will run on any platform with a PhP interpreter.

I read your idea about the positron and the electron being primary to photon. It simplify a lot the topo. Very good explaination of the exchange betwen electron and photon.
Most of that actually came from simulations based in the RS that didn't do what they were supposed to. I'm starting a formal model of RS2 to web publish, so others can start experimenting with it and flushing out the bugs. I just set up the subdomain rs2.antiquatis.org for the work (nothing published yet).

Also I have some base in Java, very good in C and C++. I programmed a little 3D library with a Matrice library during my studies. Today there a lot of way to do 3D easely! So if I can help just tell me.
I've experimented a little with Java, but am no expert. If you know C++, then PhP 5 is simple to learn; almost the same thing, with the same syntax. Only difference is PhP is interpretive and runs on the web.
I was looking at Java with the hopes of using it for a web-based, interactive graphic system where we could study the actual motions involved (thru the use of projective transforms), and how they interact (resultant fields, etc). I find the visual keys to be extremely helpful when trying to understand something. PhP only produces static content.
Perhaps I'll start another forum dedicated to working out the details of a formal computer model, which can be made public in the subdomain.
