Can Quantum Computing Reveal the True Meaning of Quantum Mechanics?
This essay by MIT's Scott Aaronson is both accessible and physically profound. Merci beaucoup for the Sunday lecture ;)
Give it a try here:

pfff heavy stuff! Saving it for later.

ReplyDeleteMy neurons are tackling the entanglement trying to understand quantum physics...
ReplyDeleteHey Corina Marinescu thank you very much for sharing this :-)
ReplyDeleteNow this has made me go hmmm
ReplyDelete>> These rules involve complex numbers, called “amplitudes,” rather than just probabilities (which are real numbers between 0 and 1). As long as a physical object isn’t interacting with anything else, its state is a huge wave of these amplitudes, one for every configuration that the system could be found in upon measuring it. Left to itself, the wave of amplitudes evolves iny a linear, deterministic way. .. Until you measure the object .. <<
Ok, so I need those math equations s'il vous plait Corina Marinescu and please don't worry, I have a degree in Mathematics and Computer Science so I'm licensed and insured to not hurt my brain ..
However, heads up I just might open up a wormhole to the other side when I observe and measure these equations ;-)
But, seriously, I have been after this mathematical formula for a while now and I need to inspect it to see if it correctly models a natural phenomena that I have noticed
Hi Corina Marinescu .. I really do want those equations if link is handy .. :-)
ReplyDeleteQM QE - Quantum Theory - Full Documentary - YouTube
.. advanced topics of quantum mechanics, some of these behaviors are macroscopic (see macroscopic quantum phenomena) and emerge at only EXTREME (i.e., very LOW or very high) energies or temperatures (such as in the use of superconducting magnets).
^^ I have always thought it curious to use high energy particle collides like the LHC to "smash the watch to pieces" then try to figure out "what time the clock hands were pointing" as the wrong way to go to develop a model of nature ;
Instead we should be going the super low near absolute zero way and examine Quantum entanglement (QE) of superfluid atoms etc.
For example, the angular momentum of an electron bound to an atom or molecule IS QUANTITIZED.
In contrast, the angular momentum of an unbound electron is !! NOT !! QUANTIZED.
^^ WTF is THAT anomaly about ! investigate it to reconcile wave-particle "paradox" !! ^^
In the context of quantum mechanics, the wave--particle duality of energy and matter and the uncertainty principle provide a unified view of the behavior of photons, electrons, and other atomic-scale objects.

String theory - a theory barely Alive ..
:-)
We can rebuild him,
We can make him better, faster, stronger ..
:-)
And I've also started to plan out the framework of the software for the mathematical modeling language that most compactly represents and models the data from the
#1) LHC experiment ...
And to make it comparable to the data from the
#2) Harvard ACME laser experiment data - to super cool and QE atoms/quanta/light
Allright , so before you place a fie on me :-) .. Please open your mind up and think about this new approach #2) from Harvard as it seems an excellent way forward to decide the N of the N-dimensional fabric of physics i.e. does string theory / M-theory even possibly apply to experimental data ?
Electron EDM calculation race for precision determines fate of theoretical physics models.
Specifically ,
Super precise low cost ACME laser experiments
vs.
LH collider (LHC) experiments
-----
Simultaneously, the ACME experiment, run by a team of less than 50, built for a few million dollars (and much, much smaller), has created a more precise test of these advanced theories. This experiment hinges on an extremely painstaking and precise method to picture the shape and size of electrons.
... The electric field in ThO has been calculated to be 84 GV/cm, one of the largest known.
... Therefore, we can perform our field reversal without reversing any external fields, which will give us very powerful rejection of systematic errors. ...
ACME Electron EDM http://laserstorm.harvard.edu/edm/
ACME Electron EDM at Harvard has clearly, completely and absolutely nailed the design of particle physics experiments on the critical aspect of Orthogonality , so expect more from them. In other words, Harvard ACME seems much more likely to decide the future of SUSY, String Theory, and quantum entanglement / spooky action at a distance ( Einstein "hated it") than the LHC (unless LHC gets wise and retrofits/transforms experiment and/or data based on principles below, I feel kinda sorry for them) .
