    I don't really see your point.
    the stopping of the circular motion in a rotating sphere IS the change in
    velocity of points compared to the axis. nothing else.
    I don't really know enough about isotopic decay, but would say that the
    essence of the decay is the change in positions of the electrons. Isn't it?
