Abstract
THE theory of radioactive transformation, on the basis of wave-mechanics was initiated by Gamow and Condon and Gurney. The consequences have been worked out in detail by Born1 and Kudar.2 But Heisenberg's objection to the construction of particles out of packets of Schrödinger waves, that they tend to spread out in course of time, has not yet been met.
