Otto-Motl (OM) Statistics


Otto-Motl (OM) Statistics

This sort of relaxed logic as physics grounding was on my mind. It addresses philosophic and science issues. After all, by such radical statistical grounding Newton was at a loss to explain how the planets moved in the same direction while the science of chance seems to make a natural case of the arising of directed spirals and merely as a result of the shifting of ellipses. But have always had this dispute as to if there is something sacred in the geometry of say a sunflower, or it just a result of more reductionist ideas like pressure between its seeds to make patterns.
