You, sir (or madam), are my hero. I don't know what was wrong with my code, but when I used your simplified version and plotted the results, I got the most beautiful pair of exponential curves I have ever seen! Now I'll be awake for the rest of the night trying to figure out what was wrong...

If it's any help, my simulation ends at t = 1 which definitely should not be happening

Haha, yes, I just realized that as soon as I replied to your post. I've modified my code (below) but I still have the same problem. I'll keep tinkering... while(ni > 0) // Stop when no electrons remain in state i { k = 0; while(k < ni) // Loop through all electrons in state i...

I already checked that out... the array elements initialize to 0 by default.

Homework Statement I have to simulate a two-level electron scattering process. 1000 electrons start in state i and over time, end up in state f. I need to plot the number of electrons in each state as a function of time. Homework Equations None. The Attempt at a Solution The probability...

Homework Statement Tertiary neutrino and muon beams can be formed using pion -> muon + neutrino decays from a high intensity, high energy secondary pion beam. Consider a secondary pion beam of 100 GeV/c momentum and assume that the neutrinos have a mass of a few eV. Within what angular cone...
