A compact map of the physical world: the basic constituents of matter, their properties, the interactions between them, and the laws that connect the microworld with stars and the Universe.
Quantum mechanics is one of the most accurately tested frameworks in physics. KOINOT presents first the conventional formulation, and then the CTPA diffusion interpretation that is intended to explain why quantum behavior has this form.
