Hi Keynes ,
You wonder :
" are there waves or particles ,
or both , or neither ? "
That depends , In your mind , You might see either one .
But does that instantly change nature ? Obviously not .
Physicists see particle when they look for them ,
Tiny objects are particle-like and probabilistic ,
yet they're also intrinsic to their field , waves .
Those same physicists see waves when they look for them .
In contrast , when they look at the cosmos ,
they see only static uniformity .
Is that because nature is different at different scales ?
Obviously not .
Nasa's high resolution WMAP has determined that
at scales much bigger than 10 ^ 10 cm ,
the temperature of the cosmic microwave background
is _ very _ uniform and isotropic .
( Like form 2.749 to 2.751 degrees Kelvin . )
