Could you build this?
Partial The visualization and UI are vibe-codeable, but the claim of mathematically accurate, real-time atomic and nuclear physics needs real physics expertise. Hydrogen-like orbitals are tractable, but multi-electron dynamics, selection rules, and decay modeling are not.
What it would actually take: Use established quantum and nuclear models such as hydrogenic wavefunctions, Hartree-Fock or DFT approximations, and decay formulas with NIST/NUBASE/CODATA constants. Validate outputs against published spectra. The hard part is physics correctness, which requires a physicist or computational chemist, and real-time rendering on top of that needs GPU and numerical-methods skills.
