The document discusses the divisibility and indivisibility of atoms. It notes that while Democritus originally described atoms as indivisible, quantum theory shows that atoms can be divisible. Specifically, atoms are divisible at the quantum level as seen in experiments where electrons can be separated from protons and neutrons. However, atoms also appear indivisible when not being observed, as in the double slit experiment where electrons do not exist until observed. Quantum theory is able to reconcile both the divisible and indivisible nature of atoms.

Dear Democritus described the smallest structure of
matter as atomos indivisible. And this structure was the
structure that created the matter we see around us. We should think like this; Do atoms become divisible in the quantum world? If the state of an object on matter comes from its atomos, that is, its indivisible property, it will come from the divisible nature of matter and atoms under matter, and the object particle will be in two places at the same time. In other words, atoms are only indivisible for the supermaterial. It is divisible for article six. Then, if the fact that it is indivisible means that the atom cannot be separated from the neutron, electron and proton, then the mirror material property that I mentioned in my previous article, that is, the proton acts as an electron and the electron as a proton, becomes supermaterial and . In quantum theory, the atom is divisible, that is, the separation of protons, electrons and neutrons can be made. Now let's come to the double slit experiment: In the double slit experiment, matter, namely the electron, does not exist until we observe it. So what does this mean? How do we relate it to the above? then the separation of electrons will correspond to the divisibility of the atom. In other words, when we look at an object and make an electron separation on matter, it will constitute the time when the atom is divisible. However, when we do not look at an object and do not distinguish between electrons under matter, it will constitute the time when the atom is indivisible. Since quantum theory is the common point of these two situations. That is, it holds together the divisible and indivisible qualities of both existence and non-existence of the atom. As a result, we can assert that in the presence of an electron-bound object on matter, the atom is quantumly divisible
