Greetings,
I'm trying to illustrate how nuclear fusion would "look" from the perspective of two nuclei that are quantum entangled. I have a very limited knowledge of quantum theory but I can imagine how two nuclei might be illustrated as a waveform consisting of two functions in superposition. I am imagining three dimensional waves upon a sphere of something like jello in zero gravity with the vibrations running endlessly around it. My problem is how to illustrate what happens if those two nuclei are made to fuse. The old picture of two nuclei colliding like ping pong balls and sticking together makes sense to me, but what would the analogy be when the two nuclei are quantum entangled? Would my three dimensional sphere of jello get hit by another wave (an energy input) and then emit a wave of energy (energy output) and thus leave the sphere wiggling to the beat of a single function? Or is my use of a jello ball in zero gravity not a good idea?
many thanks,
Mark
