- Viliam1234 6y agoI think the momentum is still limited by the speed of light.
- MichaelBurge 6y agoSo if you measured in succession fast enough, the particles would move continuously. So the probability density should be time-dependent.
- Viliam1234 6y agoContinuously, but always in a new unpredictable direction, i.e. Brownian motion. And I suppose if you keep measuring them fast enough, so much disturbance will kick them off the atom, so they are no longer in the shell. The shell is what happens when the electrons are left alone. (Not completely sure about this part.)
