Jesus, physics has gotten REALLY BAD indeed. This is clown car tier.
If you overlay all atomic spectra, you expect the result to be something like Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (aka eigenvalues of a random matrix), which looks much like the Planck distribution. Nothing to do with matter in the early universe; most atoms didn't exist in the early universe. TLDR; contemporary physicists fail at elementary statistical distributions, and, like, common sense.
- andi999 6y agoThanks, I remembered GUE and was wondering if it is related.
- hakmem 6y agoIndeed, random matrix theory can be applied to large elements and the eigenvalue distribution of random matrices is also asymmetrical. But, dimwit, check how exactly they look like and will see that a Planck distribution matches the data a lot better than the random matrix foo.
