Comment

Expansion needed for Resonance in particle/nuclear physics generally.

Article needed on Breit-Wigner theory (

• wp
• g
• b

).

Currently see:

• Resonance (particle) (1 line);
• Resonance#Resonance_.28particle.29_and_resonance_in_quantum_mechanics (3 lines); and
• Relativistic Breit–Wigner distribution (not much physical motivation).

Breit-Wigner currently redirects to Cauchy distribution! Jheald (talk) 08:45, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
