Talk:Causal sets

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Relevant?

Russell and Whitehead's theory of space-time, called "eventism," reduces to the theory of causal sets when it is constrained to finite sets of events. Causal sets form relative frequencies, which leads directly to the definition of mass-energy in accord with Planck's E=hf. Each "causal link" is then a quantum. Fundamental particles, including the electron, neutrino, proton and neutron, have been modeled by Carey R. Carlson as simple causal sets.

This paragraph was moved from the main causal set article because it is unclear (e.g. "Each causal link is then a quantum"??), unsourced (e.g Where's a reference for Russell and Whitehead's eventism theory? Carey R. Carlson's work?) and contains incorrect statements (e.g. the proton and neutron are not fundamental particles - see quarks). StevenJohnston (talk) 13:46, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
