✦ Synopsis

I. Reality and interpretation.

Dualism of interpretation.

The corpuscular statistical interpretation of the wave density and the wave interpretation of discontinuities of energie represent untenable absolute standpoints as against the relativity of quantum theory.

2. Kinematics of diffraction.

Equivalence of Huyghens' resonance and corpuscular transmissions of momentum.

Length as a wave attribute, momentum as a corpuscular attribute.

The compromises of the absolutists are based on overinterpretations.

Modified meaning of the uncertainty relation. Classical versus wave and corpuscular view. 3. Quantum dynamics.

Expansion of the range in space, contraction of the range of momentum. Corpuscular process relating wave data, wave process relating corpuscular data. The prototype of quantum dynamics. Prestabilized harmony between waves and particles. 4. Fluctuations.

Particles and waves appear as limit cases of fluctuations. Classical and quantum theoretical undeterminacy.

The emission of a-particles and a-beats. 0 1. REALITY AND INTERPRETATION.

We argue that the notion of "structure" in microscopic physics is not derivable from quantum mechanics, but must be added to the quantum theory as a postulate of equal status: we then obtain the conventional pictures of molecular and nuclear physics.
