One of the things I’ve wondered about was the reason for the half-life of radioactive elements. I thought I’d present what appears to be the explanation for that unique event among the elements in a general manner. (To understand the relationship of radioactive material to that of an atom, see “The Relationship of the Electron to the Proton” in this blog.

The place to begin is with Appendix D (The Bones of Time). It is noted that an atom is composed of layers of shells formed of nodes through which electrons pass as they maintain position about the core point of an atom, as well as maintain their frequency by means of velocity and polar position. Not all locations about an atom are node points, for the shells are not solid nodes. There are areas through which electrons pass that are but lines of force extending outward from the core point location upward. The frequency of the electron does not match these, so its passage through them is uneventful.

There are wave patterns that form about an atom of which an incoming electron may become a part of, supporting and amplifying that pattern. There are only so many openings in each sub shell for a limited number of electrons to fill, so when a wave pattern is complete the pattern itself rejects all other newcomers. Similar to allowing only a certain number of players on a football field, or on a basketball court. The pattern begun in the lower shells cannot extend perpetually outward from the core point of the atom, so it must begin to change as the shells of an atom extend outward. To amplify this thought conceptually, consider a knitted pattern that must extend outward but having only the same number of stitches as the innermost section. A design plan must be formed. In the atom the design plan is the insertion of nodes in places which do not directly match a lower pattern. A new, unstable standing wave pattern (node) is able to attach and fill a wave opening, which wave pattern is tenuous due to its harmonic frequency not being directly reinforced by the entire wave pattern. This means that when the pattern is disrupted the entire non-reinforced node is released, along with whatever energy is associated with it.

“But,” you say, “Why do particular atoms have differing half-lives?” The answer to that lies in the mystery of mathematics. The concept is that of probability. The concept of probability is not as random in finding solutions as a person may think. In fact, the more facts that are gained about any particular event, the less probability there is of deviation that is not accounted for. In that there are so many unstable atoms, and they are all exactly alike and are losing node points through the passage of time, the probability of individual atoms losing a node point or electron wave nodes is predictable. What is not predictable is which atom will have a frequency disruption. The releasing of a node or electron wave does not have to do with temperature. It apparently has to do with the overall wave of the mass, and the probability that the overall wave pattern will meet and match, and force a tenuous node away by the increased support of the entire wave mass frequency acting against it. This also means that an element that loses an electron frequency into what we call “radioactivity” may have a like frequency reassociate with it, thus becoming radioactive again, whether over a long period of time or instantly.

So, we conjure up an atom with the differing standing waves in the different sub-shells and pretty soon we see there is an opportunity exposing itself in an area in which the wave pattern does not regularly support. A node point soon forms in that location as a standing wave not moving with the entire sub shell wave pattern but attached to it. The wave pattern of that shell may last for centuries to thousand of centuries, but at some point the shell wave pattern exerts its force where that standing wave is located and that standing wave, or node, has to seek a spot somewhere else. The atom then loses that much mass and the shell wave pattern remains covering that new area. Conversely, when a new wave is forced upon a sub shell wave pattern, forcing the sub shell pattern to hold to a new position, the forthcoming energy shall have found a new home, however tenuous the half-life may be. In some atoms the node being ejected shall have been formed where the reinforced pattern must exist perpetually, and that new, forthcoming energy is immediately forced away. The half-life of that radioactive mass is almost zero. In other atoms the new wave is formed in a location where the reinforced standing wave seldom moves to but does so occasionally. The half-life of that radioactive mass may only be a few days. So on and on go the possibilities of node attachment to the reinforced wave motion of shells forming an atom, with each particular atom only granting particular locations where node attachment may occur.

And that’s how it appears that God has engineered atomic energy so it can be of benefit to mankind. It is, of course, not an accident that atomic energy is formed as it is. God could make all atoms to be as inert as neon or one of the other noble gasses. But it has been made for our advantage. We have been given the understanding of how to use atomic energy for the benefit of all, that we may subdue Nature, which only possesses the nature of destruction.
