Thus there is a finite probability for a particle with an energy larger than the step height to be reflected.
Their measurements showed that, even at higher Reynolds numbers, the turbulence could still collapse back to laminar flow with a finite probability.
"There is a minute but finite probability that I could make it in."
There is a finite probability that a photon will tunnel across the gap rather than follow the refracted path.
That is an approximation and the if one does the math, there is a finite probability of the electron "jumping" to the other side.
Even if is a countable set, there is a finite probability that two samples will have exactly the same value.
The nucleus of a 14C atom is unstable so there is a finite probability at any instant in time that it will decay.
The object's waveform doesn't have to physically move into the zone, because it has a finite probability of being there already.
The Mössbauer effect occurs because there is a finite probability of a decay occurring involving no phonons.
If a walker encounters a pore-solid interface, it is killed with a finite probability .
