I can pretty much guarantee it is complex. All other domains of complex interaction known, whether electrons or particle, or quark or other entity, oscillate at some wavelength. The whole theory of quantum chromodynamics is dedicated to the spectral interpretation of quantum states. This is result of a system describable as a complex infinite series. This is why you can't generate impulses that don't last at least a certain minimum time in our universe. So, it appears in our universe that things have to last no less than a Planck time for mathematical consistency reasons (presuming that the information world is conservative). Given that speed light is the limiting parameter governing the macroscopic universe and the relationship between matter and light, the intermediate must exist at some integral multiple (for mathematical reinforcement reasons) of this minimum Planck time. So, the "existence" (the information state)is bound by the same limitations of time and space.

So, I can tell you that the "states" of the intermediate(s) is(are) there for at least a Planck time and be of a size no smaller than a Planck size. We now have a lower limit for gao seng's stuff that isn't there. Now that we know how tiny it isn't we can start to define it in spectral terms. Every object at that scale or bigger is describable in spectral terms, which necessarily means that there is some parts of it there and some parts that aren't. Even "proton-ness" and "neutron-ness" become describable only in probablistic terms.
