Made a small test to detect whether a hydrogen under fusion conditions was a successful split or if it fused before it could split. Then I pasted the test 100 times for a large array to test in bulk.

@funky, This is fantastic! This data is a very good find and a great addition to TPT science. I'm going to make a save soon that will be a compilation of many different TPT physical laws, from subframe to fusion. I think I'll add this to that and credit you. This experiment has earned a special place in the vast ocean of TPT science discoveries.

Just got around to calculating my data from 100 runs of 100 tests for 10000 total tests. Had 2066 fuses throughout the process, giving me a 20.66% chance to fuse, which is even closer to the 20% chance to fuse than my first 10 runs for 1000 tests that gave me a 21.6% chance.

@DUC But that doesnt mean the event has taken place

@NoVIcE Even when it's paused the Graphics functions of the parts are still running, which means that they are observed.

@DUC That's true, except for that the machine always observes the reaction and makes a measurement.

@DUC i.e when its paused

@Xenarchus89 It's possible, as long as you're not observing the simulation.

It always fuses or splits

@Kostia N/A would actually be a quantum superposition state. The state of N/A is hypothetical but impossible.

You forgot to account for N/A, when it does neither. It's helpful to add unexpected, unlikely, yet possible outcomes.
