Complicate the Person Above

Part of the difficulty in understanding the population dynamics of death tribbles is that they are all in an oscillating mixed quantum state of distinguishable and indistinguishable particles, with a weakly-coupled resonance with a much more massive and short-lived state, hypothetically labeled the Tamo-yogya tribble.  The decay of all three of these is so unspeakably foul that the problem has lain unexamined for decades.

Yeah, here's an example, from inside the coude room of the 2.1m Struve Telescope:

I'm the 4th guy from the left, next to the woman with the sousaphone.

 

Death Tribble is also in that image, the furball partially sticking out from behind the three Hare Krishna dudes with accordions near lower right center, trying to steal their packet of leaflets.

 

(Yes, it's always dark in a coude room.  Kind of essential to its function.)

I DID NOT.  It was only mild trouble.  Mostly because it was back in the 1980s.

 

Death Tribble has a stack of a dozen erudite books on a table in his living room which is there purely to impress visitors.  Since putting them there, he hasn't touched them, other than sweep the dust off of them five times a year.
